Cisco 3850 Reload Slot Command

NOTE: Other Cisco Command Cheat Sheet Posts: Cisco Router Commands Cheat Sheet. Cisco ASA Firewall Commands Cheat Sheet. The following commands will work on most Cisco switch models such as 4500, 3850, 3650, 2960, 3560 etc. Verification Commands: TestSwitch#show version Displays software and hardware information TestSwitch#show running-config.

• Command Reference, Cisco IOS XE Everest 16.6.x (Catalyst 3850 Switches). Removed—A switch that was present in the stack was removed using the reload slot command.
• Cisco Catalyst 3850 Series Switches with 12 and 24 1 Gigabit Ethernet SFP ports Figure 4. Cisco Catalyst 3850 Series Switches with 10 Gigabit Ethernet 48 ports Table 1 shows the Cisco Catalyst 3850 Series configurations. Cisco Catalyst 3850 Series configurations Model Total 10/100/1000 or SFP or SFP+ ports Default AC power supply Available.
• You can display the current stack member number by using the show switch user EXEC command. Step 2: reload slot stack-member-number Example: Switch # reload slot 5 Resets the stack member. Step 3: copy running-config startup-config Example: Switch # copy running-config startup-config Saves your entries in the configuration file.

Cisco switches can be used as plug-and-play devices out of the box but they also offer an enormous amount of features. Although the main purpose of the switch is to provide inter-connectivity in Layer 2 for the connected devices of the network, there are myriad features and functionalities that can be configured on Cisco Switches.

In the following Cisco Switch Commands Cheat Sheet, I have tried to include the most important and frequently-used CLI commands that Cisco professionals encounter in real world networks. I know that the list is not exhaustive but I believe that the most useful commands are included.

PortFast

Cisco 3850 Command Reference

'Portfast' bypasses the Spanning Tree states and brings the port up as quickly as possible. Use it only if you connect a regular host (e.g Computer) on the port. Do not use this command when the port is trunk or if you connect other switches on the specific port.
