Cisco 2620, presuming you have console or serial port access to get there in
the first place
login, enable (and password)
enter "config t"
enter "interface fastethernet0/0
enter "no shut"
enter "end"
enter "wr"
enter "show int fastethernet0/0" to see what the status is.
Be aware, if the interface is _not_ connected (plugged into something) it
will not come up at all regardless of what you do, so please check your
cabling, hub/switch or port or whatever before doing this.
