Configuring Interfaces | 113
In addition to inspecting the running config, as described above (see Figure 7-76), the CLI provides
multiple commands to inspect the status and configuration of interfaces:
• show interface managementethernet: Use this command, in either Privileged Exec mode or User Exec
mode (the only command in this set that is available in User Exec mode), to display the current
Management Ethernet interface settings. See Verifying Access to a Management Port on page 69.
•
show interface switchport: Displays a packet transmission summary for the switch. See Figure 7-77.
•
show interface unit/slot/port: Enter the port number of a particular port to query, where unit is the stack
member, slot is always 0 (zero), and port is the port number. This command provides a summary of
packets received and transmitted on the designated interface. For sample S50 and S50V output, see
Figure 7-78 and Figure 7-79 on page 114, respectively.
•
show interface ethernet switchport: Displays more packet transmission details for the switch than the
show interface switchport command. See Figure 7-80 on page 114.
•
show interfaces cos-queue [unit/slot/port]: The unit/slot/port parameter (as described above) is optional.
If specified, the class-of-service queue configuration of the interface is displayed. If omitted, the most
recent global configuration settings are displayed. See Figure 7-81 on page 115.
•
show interface ethernet unit/slot/port: Displays details on port activity on the designated interface. See
Figure 7-82 on page 116.
•
show interfaces description {unit/slot/port | 1-3965}: Enter an interface ID, in unit/slot/port format, to
report on a particular interface, or enter a VLAN ID to display information for that VLAN.
•
show port description unit/slot/port: Enter an interface ID, in unit/slot/port format, to display the
user-entered description of the selected interface. You enter the description in this way, from Global
Config mode:
