int <interface>
no shutdown => Makes administratively UP.

If you do 'show ip int brief' you'll be able to see that.

<div>
&gt;&gt;Why it is administratively down?<br />
<br />
That is the default config. You'll have to manually bring it up by issuing the above command.<br />

A router is a networking device that forwards data packets between computer networks. Routers perform the "traffic directing" functions on the Internet. The most familiar type of routers are home and small office cable or DSL routers that simply pass data, such as web pages, email, IM, and videos between computers and the Internet. More sophisticated routers, such as enterprise routers, connect large business or ISP networks up to the powerful core routers that forward data at high speed along the optical fiber lines of the Internet backbone. Though routers are typically dedicated hardware devices, use of software-based routers has grown increasingly common.
