Line Description
displayed in bits, packets per second, and percent of line
rate.
Time since... Elapsed time since the last interface status change
(hh:mm:ss format).

Usage
Information The Management port is enabled by default (no shutdown). If necessary, use the
ip address command to assign an IP address to the Management port. If two
RPMs are installed in your system, use the show redundancy command to display
which RPM is the Primary RPM.
