This interface will not be able to be pinged locally.Any routes that
refernece this will not show until this port becomes active.
Bring up the port and all will be fine

Subject: ethernet is up, line protocol is down


Hi guys - perhaps you can clairify something for me.

According to CIT - this means layer 1 is up, but layer 2 is down 
(paraphrase) - what I need to know is the reprecussions of this -

In other words, can I ping this interface ip address from within the router?

  Could I do a sh ip route on this ip address and at least try to see it?  
Obviously, I can't do it from another router across the interface, but I 
thought I'd be able to assign an ip address, ping it internally, and have it

ready to go when we get something to plug into it.

Kind of hitting my head against a wall here.  Thanks.

RB
