Displaying port information

You can use CLI commands to display the following port information:
Port configuration and status
PoE state
Port statistics
You also can configure WSS Software to display and regularly update port statistics in a separate window.

Displaying port configuration and status

To display port configuration and status information, use the following command:

show port status [port-list]

To display information for all ports, type the following command:
# show port status
In this example, three of the switch’s ports, 1, 5, and 6, have an operational status of up, indicating the links on
the ports are available. Ports 1 and 6 are network ports. Port 5 is an AP access port.
(For more information about the fields in the output, see the Nortel WLAN Security Switch 2300 Series
