•Line Protocol Status—Current state of the line protocol. Possible values are:
–
Up—Software processes that handle the line protocol consider the line to
be usable (that is, keepalives are successful).
–
Down—Software processes that handle the line protocol consider the
line to be unusable.
You can use the Line Protocol together with Operational Status to
troubleshoot interface connection problems. For example, if Operational
Status is Up, but Line Protocol is Down, the interface has detected a carrier
on the physical layer, but there might be clocking or framing problems.
