　　(1) 接口和活动状态

　　在上面的显示中，内容表示硬件接口是活动的，而处理行协议的软件过程相信此接口可用。如果路由器操作员拆卸此硬件接口，第一个字段将显示信息is administratively down.如果路由器在活动间隔内收到5000个以上的错误，单词Disabled将出现在此字段中，以显示连路由器自动禁用此端口。行协议字段还显示以前提到的三个描述之一：up、down、administratively down.如果字段项是up,则表示处理行协议和软件过程相信此接口可用，因为她正在接收keepalives的目的也是如此，其他设备可以确定某个空闲连接是否仍然活动。对于以太网接口，Keepalives的默认值是10s。我们不久将注意到，Keepalives设置可以通过为特定接口使用show interfaces命令来获得。可以用keepalive interface 命令来改变keepalives设置。此命令的格式如下：Keepalive seconds
