Example of Using a Macro to Change the Interface Range Conguration Mode
The following example shows how to change to the interface-range conguration mode using the interface-range macro named “test.”
Dell(config)# interface range macro test
Dell(config-if)#
Monitoring and Maintaining Interfaces
Monitor interface statistics with the monitor interface command. This command displays an ongoing list of the interface status (up/
down), number of packets, trac statistics, and so on.
To view the interface’s statistics, use the following command.
• View the interface’s statistics.
EXEC Privilege mode
monitor interface interface
Enter the type of interface and slot/port information:
– For a 100/1000/10000 Ethernet interface, enter the keyword TenGigabitEthernet then the slot/port information.
– For a 10-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword TenGigabitEthernet then the slot/port information.
– For a 40-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword fortyGigE then the slot/port information.
Example of the monitor interface Command
The information displays in a continuous run, refreshing every 2 seconds by default. To manage the output, use the following keys.
• m — Change mode
• l — Page up
• T — Increase refresh interval (by 1 second)
• t — Decrease refresh interval (by 1 second)
• c — Clear screen
• a — Page down
• q — Quit
