Just through the "no keepalive" under the ethernet interface and the
interface will be up/up I believe even without a cable plugged in. Good
trick to know

Subject: Ethernet loopback plug?

I am doing the CC bootcamp labs and I am running into a problem. On the
first lab, four routers are involved; several of which the Ethernet
interfaces are connected to separate broadcast domains. Now I only have
2 machines currently and let's say there are 5 separate broadcast
domains. Is there a plug/cable/adapter I can use to bring the Ethernet
interfaces up/up instead of connecting them to several separate machine
(of which I don't have?).

I also realize I can connect them to a hub, but I may run out of ports.
Just curious!
