Table B-5 show card Command Field Descriptions
DescriptionField
Slot number the card occupies.slot
Type of the interface card, as specified by the administrator. The first two letters indicate the general
type of the card such as ib (InfiniBand). This is followed by the number of ports on the card and
then the maximum supported network speed. There are two types that do not follow this convention,
controller and controllerIb12port4x. controller indicates the type of independent controller card
found on both sides of the system chassis. controllerIb12port4x indicates a controller card that
piggy-backs onto a 12-port InfiniBand switch cluster connections, where each port connection can
support speeds up to 4X. controllerIb12port4x is found in system configurations.
admin type
Actual type of the card, as detected by the controller. If there is any conflict between admin type
and oper type, the system assumes the type specified by oper type is correct and allows you to
configure the card based upon this assumption. If a type mismatch occurs, verify that you are
selecting the correct type for the card in the chassis.
oper type
Administrative status of the interface card, as specified by the administrator. When the system
initializes, all interfaces start with admin status in a down state. When a card is disabled, it is
powered-off and can no longer process packets. The value is up or down. The no shutdown command
in the card configuration mode changes the status to up. shutdown without the no keyword changes
the card status to down.
