Port Status
The Port Status tab lets you monitor alarms, statuses, thresholds, and bandwidth
utilization. As well, you can view port and cable diagnotics.
Field Description
Unit Indicates where the port resides:
• Base (for example, 1783-MS10T).
• Expansion module (for example, 1783-MX08T).
Port Indicates the port selected for configuration.
The port number includes the port type (Fa for Fast Ethernet and Gi for Gigabit Ethernet), the base or expansion module number (1, 2, or 3),
and the specific port number, such as in the following examples:
• Gi1/1 is Gigabit Ethernet port 1 on the base.
• Fa2/1 is Fast Ethernet port 1 on the first expansion module.
Port Alarm Status Displays the current status of the port alarm:
• Link fault alarm
• Port not forwarding alarm
