Configuring a Port Alias
The interfaces alias command is used to configure an alias (i.e., description) for a single port. (You
cannot configure an entire switch or a range of ports.) For example:
-> interfaces 2/3 alias ip_phone1
-> interfaces 2/3 alias “ip phones 1”
Configuring Maximum Frame Sizes
The interfaces max-frame-size command can be used to configure the maximum frame size (in bytes) on
a specific port, a range of ports, or all ports on a switch.
For example:
-> interfaces 2/3 max frame 9216
-> interfaces 2/1-3 max frame 9216
-> interfaces 2 max frame 9216
Configuring Digital Diagnostic Monitoring (DDM)
Digital Diagnostics Monitoring allows the switch to monitor the status of a transceiver by reading the
information contained on the transceiver's EEPROM. The transceiver can display Actual, Warning-Low,
Warning-High, Alarm-Low and Alarm-High for the following:
• Temperature
• Supply Voltage
• Current
• Output Power
• Input Power
To enable the DDM capability on the switch use the interfaces ddm command. For example, enter:
-> interfaces ddm enable
Traps can be enabled using the interfaces ddm-trap if any of the above values crosses the pre-defined
low or high thresholds of the transceiver. For example:
-> interfaces ddm-trap enable
Note. Spaces must be contained within quotes.
Note. In order to take advantage of the DDM capability, the transceiver must support the DDM
functionality. Not all transceivers support DDM; refer to the Transceivers Guide for additional DDM
information.
