Cisco: No autostate on GigabitEthernet interfaces, any alternative? (not working)

ciscocisco-commandstesting

I recently tried the command "no autostate" on a GigabitEthernet interface (on a newer router) and this didn't work anymore, does anyone know why this is occuring? This use to work on FastEthernet interfaces. Any alternative suggestions?

Working configuration: (Cisco router 881)

Interface vlan 2
no autostate

Not working: (Cisco router 1921)

Interface vlan 2
no autostate

Best Answer

After some research and questioning with cisco specialists, we can conclude that in newer versions of IOS and newer routers, autostate is applied by default and unchangeable. (so the "no autostate" will not work anymore on vlan's).
