Server-facing interfaces
On the MX9116n Fabric Switching Engine and MX5108n Ethernet Switch, server-facing interfaces are internal and are enabled by default.
To view the internal port connections to servers, use the show inventory media command.
In the output, a server-facing interface displays INTERNAL as its media. A FIXED port does not use external transceivers and always
displays as Dell EMC Qualified true. To view the server-facing backplane port status, use the show interface status
command.
NOTE
: On the MX9116n Fabric Switching Engine, servers that have a dual-port NIC connect only to odd-numbered internal
Ethernet interfaces; for example, 1/1/1, 1/1/3, 1/1/5, and so on.
