    • Only the S5720-EI, S5720-HI, S5730-HI, S5731-H, S5731-S, S5731S-H, S5731S-S, S5732-H, S6720-EI, S6720-HI, S6720S-EI, S6730-H, S6730S-H, S6730-S, and S6730S-S support Ethernet sub-interfaces.

    • Only hybrid and trunk interfaces on the preceding switches support Ethernet sub-interface configuration.
    • After you run the undo portswitch command to switch Layer 2 interfaces on the preceding series of switches into Layer 3 interfaces, you can configure Ethernet sub-interfaces on the interfaces.
