  • #: Unit logical port numbers 1-6. However, while using the CLI interface, the ports are named as follows:
    • Interface Gigabit Ethernet 1/1—interface Gigabit Ethernet 1/4
    • Interface 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet 1/1—interface 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet 1/2
  • Type: Copper/SFP. Ports 1-4 are Gigabit copper ports. Ports 5-6 are SFP 2.5 Gigabit SFP ports with a default of 1 Gigabit link speed. You must configure the SFP port to 2.5 Gigabit when a dedicated 2.5 Gigabit SFP is in use
  • Status: Reports the Link port status
    • : Port is enabled. The link is down
    • Up: Port is enabled. The link is up
    • Disabled: Port is disabled
  • Speed: Port link speed—10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, 1 Gbps, and 2.5 Gbps
    Note: SFP ports use by default 1 Gigabit connection speed. For other SFP link speeds such as 2.5 Gbit or 100 Mbit, manual configuration is required.
  • Aggregate Ports: Report aggregated port numbers when port aggregation is in use. For example, P3 and P4 mean that ports #3 and #4 are used as one logical aggregated port, doubling the logical aggregated speed to 2 Gigabit
  • Transmit: Average transmits data rate in kbps/Mbps
  • Receive : Average receive data rate in kbps/Mbps
  • System Name: Remote Network device system name as advertised over LLDP/CDP (when enabled)
  • System Description: Remote Network device system description as advertised over LLDP/CDP (when enabled)
  • IP Address: Remote Network device IP address as advertised over LLDP/CDP (when enabled)
