show ports rxerrors

show ports {port_list | stack-ports stacking-port-list} rxerrors {no-refresh | refresh}

Description

Displays real-time receive error statistics. The switch automatically refreshes the output unless otherwise specified.

Syntax Description

port_list Specifies one or more ports or slots and ports.
stacking-port-list Specifies one or more stacking ports or slots. Applies to SummitStack and the ExtremeSwitching series switches only.
no-refresh Specifies that auto-refresh is disabled. The output provides a real-time snapshot of the receive errors at the time the command is issued. This setting is not saved.
refresh Specifies a continuous refresh of output.

Default

The switch automatically refreshes the output.

Usage Guidelines

If you do not specify a port number or range of ports, receive error statistics are displayed for all ports.

If you do not specify the no-refresh parameter, the switch automatically refreshes the output (this is the default behavior).

If you specify the no-refresh parameter, the output provides a snapshot of the real-time receive error statistics at the time you issue the command and displays the output in page-by-page mode (this was the default behavior in ExtremeXOS 11.2 and earlier). This setting is not saved; therefore, you must specify the no-refresh parameter each time you want a snapshot of the port receive errors.

This status information may be useful for your technical support representative if you have a network problem.

Collected Port Receive Error Information

The switch collects the following port receive error information:

  • Port Number.

  • Link State—The current state of the link. Options are:
    • Active (A)—The link is present at this port.
    • Ready (R)—The port is ready to accept a link.
    • Loopback (L)—The port is in Loopback mode.

  • Receive Bad CRC Frames (RX CRC)—The total number of frames received by the port that were of the correct length, but contained a bad FCS value.

  • Receive Oversize Frames (RX Over)—The total number of good frames received by the port greater than the supported maximum length of 1,522 bytes.
  • Receive Undersize Frames (RX Under)—The total number of frames received by the port that were less than 64 bytes long.
  • Receive Fragmented Frames (RX Frag)—The total number of frames received by the port were of incorrect length and contained a bad FCS value.
  • Receive Jabber Frames (RX Jabber)—The total number of frames received by the port that was of greater than the support maximum length and had a Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) error.
  • Receive Alignment Errors (RX Align)—The total number of frames received by the port that occurs if a frame has a CRC error and does not contain an integral number of octets.
  • Receive Frames Lost (RX Lost)—The total number of packets dropped due to the memory queue being full.

Port Monitoring Display Keys

For information about the available port monitoring display keys, see the show ports statistics command.

Note

Note

On a V300 bridge port extender (BPE) port, neither show ports port_list qosmonitor {congestion} {no-refresh | refresh} {port-number} nor show ports port_list congestion {no-refresh | refresh}{port-number} increments when there is egress congestion. Instead, you can view egress congestion using this command on the ingress port (upstream port in many cases).

Example

The following command displays receive error statistics for all ports on the switches with auto-refresh enabled (the default behavior):

show ports rxerrors

History

This command was first available in ExtremeXOS 10.1.

The link state information was updated to include NP-Port not present in ExtremeXOS 11.2.

Support for the auto-refresh functionality and the no-refresh parameter were added in ExtremeXOS 11.3. Auto-refresh continually updates the display. The no-refresh parameter takes a real-time snapshot of the display at the time you issue the command.

The refresh keyword was added in ExtremeXOS 16.1.

Platform Availability

This command is available on ExtremeSwitching 5320, 5420, 5520, and 5720 series switches.
