Physical Interfaces

On M-series and T-series routing platforms, physical interfaces are installed on PICs and use the syntax type-fpc/pic/port. On the J-series routing platform, physical interfaces are installed on PIMs and use the syntax type-pim/0/port. Physical interfaces are described in the following sections:

• M-series and T-series Physical Interfaces
• J-series Physical Interfaces

M-series and T-series Physical Interfaces

Table 7 lists the physical interfaces that are supported on the M-series and T-series routing platforms.

NOTE:  ADSL interfaces and SHDSL interfaces are supported on the J-series routing platform only. Both interfaces are configured over an underlying ATM interface. For more information, see ATM Interface Operational Mode Commands.

NOTE: Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet (PPPoE) interfaces (pp0) are supported on the J-series routing platform only. A PPPoE interface is configured over an underlying Fast Ethernet interface. For more information, see PPPoE Interface Operational Mode Commands.
