Displaying PLCP counter information for DS3 physical ports

You can view PLCP (Physical Layer Convergence Protocol) counter information for physical ports on DS3 modules that have their mapping mode set to PLCP. To view PLCP counter information use the command: pport show plcpcounters.

Note: The pport show plcpcounters command does not display PLCP counter information for DS3 ports that have their mapping mode set to ADM.

To display DS3 counter information for all DS3 physical ports, enter the pport show plcpcounters command.

Command:

M4-DS3s8:/>pport show plcpcounters
