Chapter 3 Basic Configuration Using the Command-Line Interface
An 80% ping-success rate is normal for the first time you ping an external device. The Cisco AS5350
Note
and Cisco AS5400 do not have an Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) entry for the external device. A
100% success rate is achieved the next time you ping the device.

Configuring the Asynchronous Group Interface

Asynchronous group interfaces allow administrators to easily configure a large number of asynchronous
interfaces by allowing them to clone from one managed copy. This can also reduce the number of lines
in the configuration, because each individual asynchronous interface configuration can be replaced by
at least one group-async. To assign the asynchronous interfaces to a group-async interface, first
determine the number of asynchronous lines that need to be aggregated. This can be determined from
the running configuration.
Notice that, in the
lines are numbered from 0 to 107.

Verify

To verify your group interface configuration:
•
OL-3418-02 B0
"Checking the Initial Running Configuration" section on page
Enter the show interface async command to check if the protocol is up:
AS5400# show interface async 4/0

Configuring the Asynchronous Group Interface
Purpose
Enters the enable command. Enters your
password. You are in privileged EXEC mode when
the prompt changes to
AS5350#
Enters global configuration mode. You are in
global configuration mode when the prompt
changes to
AS5540(config)#
AS5350(config)#.
Places all asynchronous interfaces in a single
group, so that you configure the same parameters
quickly on all interfaces at one time.
Defines the slot/port group range of the interface.
The range that you specify depends on the number
of asynchronous interfaces you have on your
gateway. If your gateway has 108 asynchronous
interfaces, you can specify group-range 1/1
1/107.
Returns to enable mode.
