Monitoring Interfaces
From User Exec mode, use the following show commands to monitor and display the T3 interface, T1 interface, and HDLC serial data channel information:
- Monitor channelized T3 interfaces on a slot and port.host1#show controllers t3 0/1
- Monitor a T1 interface.host1#show controllers t3 0/1:1
- Monitor fractional T1 subchannels.host1#show controllers t3 ft1
- Monitor the state of the serial interface or a slot/port.host1#show controllers t3 serial 0/1
Setting a Baseline
You can set a statistics baseline for serial interfaces, subinterfaces, and/or circuits using the baseline interface serial command. Use the delta keyword with the show commands to display statistics with the baseline subtracted.
Displaying Counters and Time Intervals
Counters and time intervals are MIB statistics, which are defined in the following specifications:
- RFC 2495—Definitions of Managed Objects for the DS1, E1, DS2 and E2 Interface Types (January 1999)
- RFC 2496—Definitions of Managed Objects for the DS3/E3 Interface Types (January 1999)
The show controllers t3 slot/port all command displays the following information:
- T3 current interval counters—Counters for the current interval
- T3 last interval counters—Counters for the previous interval
- T3 24-hour total counters—Cumulative counters for the last 24 hours or since the interface was started
- The last 24 hours of 15-minute reporting intervals (96 intervals)
The show controllers t3 slot/port: channel all command displays the following information:
- T1 current interval counters—Counters for the current interval
- T1 last interval counters—Counters for the previous interval
- T1 24-hour total counters—Cumulative counters for the last 24 hours or since the interface was started
- The last 24 hours of 15-minute reporting intervals (96 intervals)
Output Filtering
You can use the output filtering feature of the show command to include or exclude lines of output based on a text string you specify. See Command Line Interface in JunosE System Basics Configuration Guide, for details.
baseline interface serial
- Use to set a statistics baseline for serial interfaces.
- The router implements the baseline by reading and storing the statistics at the time the baseline is set and subtracting this baseline whenever baseline-relative statistics are retrieved.
- Use the optional delta keyword with the show interfaces serial commands to view the baseline statistics.
- Examplehost1#baseline interface serial 2/0:1/1
- There is no no version.
- See baseline interface.
show controllers t1
show controllers t3
- Use to display data and MIB statistics for a T3 interface or a T1 channel.
- Use the brief keyword to display the administrative and operational status of all configured T3 interfaces, or to display abbreviated information for the specified T3 interface.
- For definitions of the MIB statistics for a T3 interface, see RFC 2496—Definitions of Managed Objects for the DS3/E3 Interface Types (January 1999).
