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.

Table 22-5. Lines in show interfaces Command Example
Line Description
TenGigabitEthernet 2/0... Displays the interface’s type, slot/port, and administrative and line
protocol status.
Hardware is... Displays the interface’s hardware information and its assigned MAC
address.
Interface index... Displays the interface index number used by SNMP to identify the
interface.
Internet address... States whether an IP address is assigned to the interface. If one is, that
address is displayed.
MTU 1554... Displays link and IP MTU information.
If the chassis is in Jumbo mode, this number can range from 576 to
9252.
LineSpeed Displays the interface’s line speed.
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 first in first out.
