2-14 Viewing Device Information

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.

Note that the Operator status provides the actual status of the port; depending on

the circumstances, this may or may not reflect the Admin state currently requested

by management. For example, ports which are administratively ON but not yet

connected would display an Operator status of OFF, since no packets are being

forwarded.

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 reflects the network load generated per polling interval by devices

connected to the port compared to the theoretical maximum load (10, 100, 155.5,

800, 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 reflects 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.

I/F Mapping

If you choose the I/F Mapping mode, the interface boxes will display the interface

number (ifIndex) associated with each port on the MultiSwitch 700 module.

I/F Speed

If you choose the I/F Speed mode, the interface boxes will display the bandwidth

of each individual port on the MultiSwitch 700 module: 10M (megabits) for

standard Ethernet; 100M for Fast Ethernet, 155.5 M for ATM, 800M for a

backplane interface, and 1.00 G for Gigabit Ethernet.

I/F Type

If you choose the I/F Type mode, the interface boxes will display the network

type supported by each interface on the MultiSwitch 700 module, e.g., Eth

(ethernet-csmacd), ATM, or FDDI. Note that there is no type distinction between

standard Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, and Gigabit Ethernet.

NOTE

The polling interval is set using the Device Management page of the Options window,

accessed via the Tools —> Options selection from the main menu bar. Refer to the

User’s Guide for information on setting node polling intervals.
