Release Information
Statement introduced before JUNOS Release 7.4.
Description
Disable a physical or a logical interface, effectively unconfiguring it.
 | Note: When you use the disable statement at the edit interfaces hierarchy level, depending on the PIC type, the interface might or might not turn off the laser. Older PIC transceivers do not support turning off the laser, but newer Gigabit Ethernet (GE) PICs with SFP and XFP transceivers do support it and the laser will be turned off when the interface is disabled. |
 | Warning: Do not stare into the laser beam or view it directly with optical instruments even if the interface has been disabled. |
Required Privilege Level
interface—To view this statement in the configuration.
interface-control—To add this statement to the configuration.
