Displaying Bridge Port Information 11-3

Table 11-1 describes the type of information provided for the bridge port.

Table 11-1 Bridge Port Attributes

Parameter	Description
designatedBridge	Identification of the designated bridge of the LAN to which the
	port is attached
designatedCost	Cost through this port to get to the root bridge. The designated
	cost of the root port is the same as the cost received in incoming
	BPDUs from the designated bridge for that LAN.
designatedPort	Identification of the designated port on the designated bridge
designatedRoot	Identification of the bridge designated as root
fwdTransitions	Number of times the port has entered forwarding state. This value
	is useful for checking the stability of a bridged topology. The
	more transitions in and out of the forwarding state, the more
	unstable is the topology.
pathCost	Cost to be added to the total path cost when this port is the root
	port
port	Either Ethernet or FDDI (maximum count: 1 = FDDI
	and 2 –17 = Ethernet)
portId	Identification of the port, which includes the port priority and the
	port number (for example: 8002)
priority	First factor to determine if a port is to be the designated port
	when more that one bridge port is attached to the same LAN. If
	all ports in a bridge have the same priority, then the port number
	is used as the determining factor.
rxAllFilters	Number of frames discarded because of a user-defined packet
	filter on the receive all path of this bridge port
rxBlockedDiscs	Number of frames discarded by this port because the receiving
	bridge port was not in the forwarding state
rxDiscards	Total number of received frames discarded (summary report only)
rxErrorDiscs	Number of frames discarded by this port because of internal
	bridge system errors (such as hardware and software address
	table discrepancies)
rxFloodUcasts	Number of unicast frames received on this port that were flooded
	to one or more ports
rxForwardMcasts	Number of multicast frames received on this bridge port
rxForwardUcasts	Number of unicast frames received on this bridge port
