Switchport missing from the port...may be???

[Saji Thomas]

Hello Experts...

I tried everything I knew to fix an issue with vlan but I cannot. I suspect that there is a missing word switchport that should be in the configuration. I am referring to the word "switchport" by itself under the interface. Should I see there or is it okay not to see it? I had this issue before but I was able to fix it after a reboot but not this time. Thanks for all your help in advance.

Config from a working switch:  

Core1#show run interface gi 1/13
Building configuration...

Current configuration : 101 bytes
!
interface GigabitEthernet1/13
switchport
switchport access vlan 300
switchport mode access
end

Config from a non working switch:  

Stack2#show run interface fa 1/0/13

Building configuration...

Current configuration : 88 bytes

!

interface FastEthernet1/0/13

 switchport access vlan 300

 switchport mode access

end

Hi,

Its ok not to see it.  As long as you have for example:

 switchport access vlan 300

switchport mode access

It is switch port and it is in access mode.

just to add to Rezas point , if you run show int f1/0/13 switchport it will state its access aswell or trunk if set as trunk
