Cisco Switch – Set interface back to defaults with one command

As easy as it is, I always forget this command.

The following command will set an interface to defaults. Lets say I have about 10 commands on the interface specifying Voice, Access, Trunk, Spanning tree – etc, and I want to quickly throw that port back to default. I can issue this command

config t
default interface gig 1/0/1

And its back to default, no configuration!

This command was introduced in IOS 11.1, so it should be in about every switch out there now.
