The SmartSwitch 2000 Chassis View
If you have selected the Bridge Mapping status mode, the port display will alter to show the physical interface index (ifIndex) associated with each front panel bridge port. For the SmartSwitch 2000 devices, the front panel bridge interfaces will map directly to each interfaceÕs ifIndex.
If you have selected the Admin status mode, a port is considered:
¥ON if the port is enabled by management and has a valid link.
¥OFF if it has not been enabled or if it has been disabled through management action.
If you have selected the Operator status mode, a port is considered:
¥ON if the port is currently forwarding packets.
¥OFF if the port is not currently forwarding packets.
Load
If you choose Load, the interface text boxes will display the percentage of network load processed by each port during the last polling interval. This percentage reßects the network load generated per polling interval by devices connected to the port compared to the theoretical maximum load (10, 100, 155.5, or 1000 Mbps) of the connected network.
Errors
If you choose the Errors mode, the interface boxes will display the percentage of the total number of valid packets processed by each port during the last polling interval that were error packets. This percentage reßects the number of errors generated during the last polling interval by devices connected to that port compared to the total number of valid packets processed by the port.
NOTES |
In SPECTRUM Element Manager, the polling interval is set using the Options window, accessed via the ToolsÑ>Options option from the primary windowÕs menu bar. Refer to the SPECTRUM Element Manager UserÕs Guide for full information on setting device polling intervals.
I/F Mapping
If you choose the I/F Mapping mode, the interface boxes will display the interface number (ifIndex) associated with each port in the SmartSwitch 2000.
I/F Speed
If you choose the I/F Speed mode, the interface boxes will display the bandwidth of each individual port on the SmartSwitch 2000: 10M (megabits) for standard Ethernet; 100M for Fast Ethernet, 155.5 M for ATM; and 1.00 G for Gigabit Ethernet.
