Monitoring the Status of Gigabit Ethernet and 10-Gigabit Ethernet Interfaces

Purpose

Display the status of Gigabit Ethernet and 10-Gigabit Ethernet interfaces. You can use the delta keyword to view baselined statistics. You can use the brief keyword to view the operational status of all configured 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 router output also includes information about the adapter identifier in the interface specifier (slot/adapter/port).

Note: The show interfaces gigabitEthernet and show interfaces tenGigabitEthernet commands display similar information.

Size of the MTU for this interface:

  • Operational—Size of the largest packet processed
  • Administrative—Setting for MTU size that you specified

Duplex Mode

Duplex option for this interface:

  • Operational—Duplex option currently used

  • Operational—Current rate at which packets are processed
  • Administrative—Setting for line speed that you specified

Debounce

  • Enabled—Clears ARP entries on the interface when the primary link fails
  • Disabled—Maintains ARP entries on the interface until the specified timeout elapses

Link

In

Analysis of inbound traffic on this interface:

  • Bytes—Number of bytes received in error-free packets
  • Unicast—Number of unicast packets received
  • Multicast—Number of multicast packets received
  • Broadcast—Number of broadcast packets received
  • Errors—Total number of errors in all received packets; some packets might contain more than one error
  • Discards—Total number of discarded incoming packets
  • Mac Errors—Number of incoming packets discarded because of MAC sublayer failures
  • Alignment—Number of incomplete octets received
  • CRC—Number of packets discarded because the checksum that the router computed from the data does not match the checksum generated by the originating devices
  • Too Longs—Number of packets discarded because the size exceeded the MTU
  • Symbol Errors—Number of symbols received that the router did not correctly decode

Out

Analysis of outbound traffic on this interface:

  • Bytes—Number of bytes sent
  • Unicast—Number of unicast packets sent
  • Multicast—Number of multicast packets sent
  • Broadcast—Number of broadcast packets sent
  • Errors—Total number of errors in all transmitted packets; note that some packets might contain more than one error
  • Discards—Total number of discarded outgoing packets
  • Mac Errors—Number of outgoing packets discarded because of MAC sublayer failures
  • Deferred—Number of packets that the router delayed sending because the line was busy. In half duplex mode, a high number of deferrals means the link is very busy with traffic from other stations. In full duplex mode, when the link is always available for transmission, this number is zero.
  • No Carrier—Number of packets sent when carrier sense was unavailable

Collisions

Analysis of the collisions that occurred:

  • Single—Number of packets sent after one collision
  • Multiple—Number of packets sent after multiple collisions
  • Late—Number of packets aborted during sending because of collisions after 64 bytes

Analysis of ARP traffic on this interface; In fields are for traffic received on the interface and Out fields are for traffic sent on the interface:

  • ARP requests—Number of ARP requests
  • ARP responses—Number of ARP responses
  • Errors—Total number of errors in all ARP packets
  • Discards—Total number of discarded ARP packets

Administrative qos-shaping-mode

QoS shaping mode:

  • disabled—Shaping mode is configured but not operational
  • frame—Statistics are reported about bytes in frames, such as transmitted bytes and dropped bytes.
  • cell—Shaping mode for shaping and policing rates is cell-based; resulting traffic stream conforms exactly to the policing rates configured in downstream devices. Reports statistics in bytes in cells and accounts for cell encapsulation and padding overhead.

  • frame
  • cell
  • none

queue

Hardware packet queue associated with the specified traffic class and interface:
