Monitoring Upper-Level Protocols over Ethernet
This section explains how to use the show commands to display the physical characteristics and the configured settings for Ethernet interfaces.
![]() | Note: The E120 and E320 routers output for monitor and show commands is identical to output from other E Series routers, except that the E120 and E320 routers output also includes information about the adapter identifier in the interface specifier (slot/adapter/port). |
You can use various show commands to monitor upper-layer protocols. For more information, see:
- Configuring Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet
- Configuring IP in JunosE IP, IPv6, and IGP Configuration Guide
- Configuring MPLS in JunosE BGP and MPLS Configuration Guide
