Intel 10/100 manual Statistics Commands, Set-port-dplex, Set-speed-sel, Set-port-fctrl, Clr-cnt

C H A P T E R 3 Intel Express 10/100 Fast Ethernet Switch

set-port-dplex

set-port-dplex <port_number> {halffull}

Specifies whether the given port is in full-duplex or half-duplex (standard Ethernet) mode. The default is half-duplex. You must set the port speed to either 10 or 100 (asense is the default) before setting a port to full-duplex.

SYS_console> set-port-dplex 2 full

Port configured in <full_duplex> mode

Parameter change in NVRAM OK

set-speed-sel

set-speed-sel <port-number> {asense10100}

Sets a port’s speed to 10, 100, or auto detect. The default is asense.

set-port-fctrl

set-port-fctrl <port-number> {onoff}

Turns the flow control feature on or off for the specified port. The default is on.

If the port is in full-duplex mode, flow control is turned off. Flow control or full duplex (or neither) can be active, but not both. One exception is between two Express 10/100 Switches.

SYS_console> set-port-fctrl 2 off

Port 2 - flow control <off>

Parameter change in NVRAM OK

Statistics Commands

This section contains instructions for displaying switching statistics using the Console Manager. The following commands provide full physical layer information as well as inter-port switching statistics. See Chapter 2 for definitions of individual statistics.

Under heavy traffic loading conditions, the Console Manager may understate the Ethernet statistical counts. You can also use a protocol analyzer to monitor the segment the port is attached to. See step 8 on page 72 for configuration details.

clr-cnt

Clears (resets) the Ethernet and bridging statistical counters.
