Interface Names ‘One of the biggest problems that new administrators face isthe interface names on the sllerent madels of rowers, With all he different Cisco devices in production networks today, some administrators are becoming confused about the names of their interfaces “The following chart isa sample of some ofthe different interface names for various routers “This i by no means a complete list.
