port clear statistics

port clear statistics - Clear port statistics

Description:

Clear port statistics. If <port-name> is not specified, all ports statistics will be cleared.

Syntax:

port clear statistics [<port-name>]

port edit

port edit - Edit port attributes

Description:

Edit port attributes. A port can be identified by its name or by the connector name. The port speed and duplex mode are not relevant when auto-negotiation is enabled. Forcing the port speed to 1G is not allowed because auto-negotiation is mandatory for Gigabit Ethernet.

Syntax:

port edit <port-identifier> {{name <port-name>} |
                               {alias <port-alias>} |
                               {state {enable | disable}} |
                               {mtu <64-10240>} |
                               {lp-threshold <64-10240>} |
                               {llr {enable|disable}} |
                               {llr-period <decimal>} |
                               {internal-loopback {enable|disable}} |
                               {internal-loopback-timeout <0-60>} |
                               {auto-nego {enable|disable}} |
                               {speed {10M|100M|1G|10G}} |
                               {duplex {half|full}} |
                               {mdi {auto|mdi|mdix}} |
                               {advertisement {<advertisement-value>}+} |
                               {pause-mode {local|transparent|disable}} |
                               {protection {enable|disable}} |
                               {protection-mode {link-status|lacp-status|
                               erp-status}} |
                               {working-connector <connector-name>} |
                               {revertive {enable|disable}} |
                               {revert-period <decimal>} |
                               {link-time-out <decimal>}
                               {lldp-state {enable|disable}}
                               {lldp-rate <decimal>}
                               {version <1-2>} }+
                               {force-tx-on {enable|disable}} }+

Parameters:

Parameter Description
<port-identifier> <string>
<port-alias> <string>
<advertisement-value> {100M-HD|100M-FD|1G-HD|1G-FD|10G-FD|pause|asym-pause}
name New name assigned to the port.
alias The "alias" name for the port, as specified by a network manager.
state Port administrative state.
mtu Maximum transmission unit, which is platform dependent and includes all headers.
Note: When the MTU is set to exceed a value of 2000, it is important that the ports passing traffic through the unit be configured with a matching speed. If the speed does not match, FIFO errors could occur.
lp-threshold Large packet threshold. Packets with a size above this threshold will be classified as large packets in the port statistics.
llr Enables or disables link lost return.
llr-period Period of time that the laser is turned on and off. Entering a value of 0 disables the laser, waiting for the opposite side to send a light pulse to re-establish the link.
Note: Do not configure 0 on both sides, or the link will never re-establish.
internal-loopback Enable the internal loopback mode. The system loopback mode redirects the transmit frames to the receive path of the port.
internal-loopback-timeout Set timeout for the internal loopback mode.
auto-nego Enables or disables auto-negotiation.
speed Specifies link speed.
duplex Specifies duplex mode.
mdi Specifies the media dependent interface mode.
advertisement Specifies capabilities advertised during auto-negotiation.
pause-mode Specifies whether pause frames are processed locally, passed through transparently, or disabled. When both pause-mode and auto-negotiation are enabled, the exact behavior depends on the auto-negotiation results.
protection Enables the protection for this port. Once enabled, the protecting port is reserved by the protection mechanism and cannot be used for monitoring purposes as long as the protection is enabled. Protection is available on LAG ports only.
protection-mode Selects the operation mode that triggers the failover action.
working-connector Selects the working connector for the specified port. The connector choice allows the user to perform a switchover operation.
Note: This parameter is only available on LAG ports with Protection Mode set to link status or LACP status.
revertive If enabled, the traffic is switched back to the main connector after the revert period has expired.
revert-period Sets the time, in seconds, during which a continuous signal must be detected on the main connector. The timer is restarted if a signal loss is detected during this period.

port show configuration

port show configuration - Show port configuration

Description:

Without arguments or with the modifier summary, this command displays the port configuration summary in a table format. When specifying a port name or a connector name, this command displays detailed configuration for that port.

Syntax:

port show configuration [<port-name>]

port show statistics

port show statistics - Show port statistics

Description:

Display port statistics.

Syntax:

port show statistics [<port-name>]  {
                { type {clearable | persistent | historic}} |
                { buckets <0-16>} |
                { period <period-id>}}+

Parameters:

Parameter Description
<port-name> <string>
<period-id> <decimal>
type Type of statistics to display:
  • clearable: Current statistics since the last clear command.
  • persistent: Current statistics since system start.
  • historic: History buckets statistics. If the number of buckets is not specified, the last 4 buckets will be displayed, starting from the specified period. If no period is specified, the last 4 buckets will be displayed.
  • buckets: Number of policy buckets to display.
  • period: Reference period for the policy history buckets. Zero for the most recent period available.

port show status

port show status - Show port status

Description:

Display port status. Valid link state values are:

  • Up: The port is up and running.
    • Dormant:
      • Indicates that a signal is detected.
      • Protection-mode for the parent LAG port is 'Link-status'.
      • Port is the standby connector.
  • Down: The physical link is down and no signal is detected.
  • Syntax:

    port show status [<port-name>]
