Interface IP-Address OK? Method Status Protocol

GigabitEthernet1/45 x.x.x.x YES manual up up

GigabitEthernet1/46 x.x.x.x YES manual up up

GigabitEthernet1/47 x.x.x.x YES manual down down

Hello Ocporbust,

here manual refers to the fact that the ip address was configured manually and not using the initial setup process:

think of manual as a property of the IP address

up / down refer to the state of the interface

you can see this:

GigabitEthernet1/44 unassigned YES unset down down

GigabitEthernet1/47 x.x.x.x YES manual down down

g1/44 has no ip address unassigned and it is unset

gi1/47 has an ip address that has been manually configured and it is currently down down (not connected I guess)

Hope to help

Giuseppe
