Version Description
7.5.1.0 Introduced on the C-Series.
6.4.1.0 Changed the organization of the display output.
6.3.1.0 Added the Pluggable Media Type eld in the E-Series output.
Usage Information
Use the show interfaces command for details on a specic interface.
NOTE: In the CLI output, the power value is rounded to a 3-digit value. For receive/transmit power that
is less than 0.000, an snmp query returns 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 is no change in the line-rate.
User Information
The following table describes the show interfaces command shown in the 10G example.
Line Description
TenGigabitEthernet
1/1...
Interface type and administrative and line protocol status.
Hardware is... Interface hardware information, assigned MAC address, and current address.
Pluggable media
present...
Present pluggable media wavelength, type, and rate. The error scenarios are:
Wavelength, unknown — Unable to determine the optics type
Unknown — If the wavelength is reading an error
Dell EMC Networking allows unsupported SFP and XFP transceivers to be used, but Dell
EMC Networking OS might not be able to retrieve some data about them. In that case,
typically when the output of this eld is “Pluggable media present, Media type is
unknown, the Medium and the XFP/SFP receive power reading data might not be
present in the output.
Interface index... Displays the interface index number the SNMP uses to identify the interface.
Internet address... States whether an IP address is assigned to the interface. If an IP address is assigned,
that address is displayed.
MTU 1554... Displays link and IP MTU information.
LineSpeed Displays the interface’s line speed, duplex mode, and negotiation mode.
Energy Ecient
Ethernet
Displays whether Energy Ecient Ethernet has been enabled or not.
ARP type:... Displays the ARP type and the ARP timeout value for the interface.
Last clearing... Displays the time when the show interfaces counters where cleared.
Queuing strategy... States the packet queuing strategy. FIFO means rst in rst out.
Input Statistics: Displays all the input statistics including:
Number of packets and bytes into the interface
Number of packets with VLAN tagged headers
Packet size and the number of those packets inbound to the interface
