Copying configs

[TroyBolton]

Hi there, can someone explain why i cant copy the config onto the 9K?

Thanks

Below is from the current 5K

interface Ethernet2/1
  switchport mode trunk
  speed 10000
  channel-group 201

And when i copy it into the 9K

Switch1(config)# interface Ethernet2/1
                                               ^
Invalid range at '^' marker.
Switch1(config)#   switchport mode trunk
                                 ^
% Invalid command at '^' marker.
Switch1(config)#   speed 10000
                             ^
% Invalid command at '^' marker.
Switch1(config)#   channel-group 201
                               ^
% Invalid command at '^' marker.

Do i need to enable that interface(Eth2/1) somehow? When i check "sh int bri" on the 5k there's Eth1/1 through to 1/48 and Eth2/1 through to 2/32 but on the 9K just Eth 1/1 - 1/54

Hi,

The issue is that on the 5k, you have module 2 (2/1-2/32) but there is no module on the 9k. So, if you want to go from 2/1 to an interface that only starts with 1/1-1/54, you need to copy the text from the 5k to notepad, modify the interface number and than paste it into the 9k.

So, 2/1 can go to 1/1, 2/2 to 1/2, etc.. if you want to start from port 1 on the 9k.
