Command History
Version Description
9.9(0.0) Introduced on the FN IOM.
9.4(0.0) Supported on the FN I/O Aggregator.
Usage Information
Use this show interfaces command for details on a specic interface. Use the show interfaces
stack-unit command for details on all interfaces on the designated stack unit.
On the I/O Aggregator, the show interface output displays incorrect rate information details over time for link
monitoring when the rate-interval is congured for 5 seconds. Dell Networking recommends using higher rate-
intervals such as 15 to 299 seconds to minimize the errors seen.
NOTE: In the CLI output, the power value will be rounded to a 3-digit value. For receive/transmit power
that is less than 0.000, an snmp query will return the corresponding dbm value even though the CLI
displays as 0.000.
NOTE: After the counters are cleared, the line-rate continues to increase until it reaches the maximum
line rate. When the maximum line rate is reached, there will be no change in the line-rate.
