Interface Field Descriptions

Use data in the following table to use the Interface tab.

Name

Description

Index

Specifies the index of the Extreme Integrated Application Hosting (IAH) port, written in the slot/port[/sub-port] format.

Name

Specifies the name of the IAH port.

Descr

Specifies the information about the interface.

Type

Specifies the type of connector plugged in the IAH port.

Mtu

Specifies the Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) for the port. The size of the largest datagram which can be sent or received on the interface, specified in octets. For interfaces that are used for transmitting network datagrams, this is the size of the largest network datagram that can be sent on the interface.

PhysAddress

Specifies the physical address of the IAH port. The address of the interface at the protocol layer immediately below the network layer in the protocol stack. For interfaces which do not have such an address (like a serial line), this object should contain an octet string of zero length.

VendorDescr

Specifies the vendor of the connector plugged in the IAH port.

DisplayFormat

Specifies the slot and port numbers (slot/port).

AdminStatus

Specifies the operational status of the IAH port. The testing state indicates that no operational packets can be passed.

OperStatus

Specifies the current status of the IAH port. The testing state indicates that no operational packets can be passed.

LicenseControlStatus

Specifies the IAH port license status.

ShutdownReason

Specifies the reason for the IAH port state change.

LastChange

Specifies the timestamp of the last change.

LinkTrap

Enables or disables link trapping. The default is enabled.

AutoNegotiate

Enables or disables auto-negotiation for the IAH port. The default is true (enabled).

AutoNegAd

Specifies the port speed and duplex abilities to be advertised during link negotiation.

The abilities specified in this object are only used when auto-negotiation is enabled on the IAH port. If all bits in this object are disabled, and auto-negotiation is enabled on the IAH port, then the physical link process on the IAH port will be disabled (if hardware supports this ability).

Any change in the value of this bit map will force the switch to restart the auto-negotiation process.

The capabilities being advertised are either all the capabilities supported by the hardware or the user-configured capabilities, which is a subset of all the capability supported by hardware.

By default, all capabilities supported by the hardware are enabled.

AdminDuplex

Specifies the administrative duplex setting for the IAH port.

OperDuplex

Specifies the operational duplex setting for the IAH port.

AdminSpeed

Specifies the administrative speed for the IAH port.

OperSpeed

Specifies the operational speed for the IAH port.

QoSLevel

Specifies the Quality of Service (QoS) level for the IAH port. The default is level1.

DiffServ

Enables the Differentiated Service feature for the IAH port. The default is enabled.

Layer3Trust

Specifies if the system should trust Layer 3 packets coming from access links or core links only. The default is core.

Layer2Override8021p

Specifies whether Layer 2 802.1p override is enabled or disabled. The default is disabled.

MltId

Specifies the MLT ID associated with the IAH port. The default is 0.

Locked

Specifies if the IAH port is locked. The default is false.

UnknownMacDiscard

Enables the functionality to discard packets with an unknown source MAC address, and prevents the other IAH port from sending packets with the same MAC address as the destination MAC address. The default is disabled.

DirectBroadcastEnable

Specifies if the IAH port forwards direct broadcast traffic.

OperRouting

Specifies the routing status of the IAH port. The default is disabled.

HighSecureEnable

Enables or disables the high secure feature for the IAH port. The default is disabled.

RmonEnable

Enables or disables Remote Monitoring (RMON) on the IAH port. The default is disabled.

FlexUniEnable

Enables or disables Flex UNI on the IAH port. The default is disabled.

EgressRateLimitState

Enables or disables egress port-based shaping to bind the maximum rate at which traffic leaves the IAH port. The default is disabled.

EgressRateLimit

Specifies the egress rate limit in Kbps. Different hardware platforms provide different port speeds.

The default is 0.

TxFlowControl

Specifies if the IAH port is sending pause frames. The default is disabled.

Note:

You must enable the flow control feature globally.

TxFlowControlOperState

Specifies the operational state of flow control.

BpduGuardTimerCount

Specifies the duration since when the IAH port is disabled. When the BpduGuardTimerCount reaches the BpduGuardTimeout value, the IAH port is enabled.

BpduGuardTimeout

Specifies the time (in seconds) for the IAH port-state recovery. After the IAH port is disabled by the BPDU guard, the IAH port remains in the disabled state until this timer expires.

The default is 120 seconds. If you configure the value to 0, the expiry is infinity.

BpduGuardAdminEnabled

Enables or disables BPDU Guard on the IAH port. The default is disabled.

ForwardErrorCorrection

Configures one of the following options for Forward Error Correction (FEC) on the IAH port:

  • CL 91

  • CL 108

  • CL 74

  • disable

  • auto

The disable option disables this configuration on the port.

ForwardErrorCorrectionApplicability

Displays whether FEC is applicable on the interface.

OperAutoNegotiate

Shows the operational state of Auto-Negotiation.

OperForwardErrorCorrection

Shows the negotiated operational FEC clause.

If the value is off, the port supports FEC and is up but not configured for FEC. If the value is notApplicable, the port does not support FEC. If the value is unknown, the port supports FEC but is down.

Action

Specifies the following actions on the IAH port:

  • none - no action.

  • flushMacFdb - flush the MAC forwarding table.

  • flushArp - flush the ARP table.

  • flushIp - flush the IP route table.

  • flushAll - flush all tables.

  • triggerRipUpdate - manually triggers a RIP update.

  • clearLoopDetectAlarm - clears the loop detection alarm on the IAH port.

The default is none.

Result

Specifies the result of the selected action. The default is none.

AutoSense

Enables or disables Auto-sense on the specific port. The default value is disabled for existing configurations but enabled for new Zero Touch Fabric Configuration deployments.

AutoSenseKeepAutoConfig

Retains the Auto-sense configuration if you disable Auto-sense on the port. The dynamic configuration becomes a manual configuration and is visible in the show running-config output.

AutoSenseState

Displays the Auto-sense port state.

CustomAutoNegAdOrigin

Specifies the origin of Custom Auto Negotiation Advertisements (CANA) configuration on the port. The supported values are:

  • config - Set by the user.

  • radius - Set by the Remote Authentication Dail-In User Service (RADIUS) attribute.

BpduGuardOrigin

Specifies the origin of BPDU Guard configuration on the port. The supported values are:

  • config - Set by the user.

  • radius - Set by the Remote Authentication Dail-In User Service (RADIUS) attribute.
