Default None
Command mode INTERFACE
Usage
information
The interface must be in Switchport Trunk mode when adding the interface to the controller. If the
interface is not in the Switchport Trunk mode, the system displays the following error message:
% Error: Interface ethernet1/1/1, must be in switchport trunk for
controller mode.
NOTE: If the interface has active port-scoped VLAN (Port,VLAN) pairs configured by the controller,
you cannot remove an interface from the controller.
The no version of this command removes the interface from the controller and removes any VXLAN
binding associated with the interface.
