Mediant 800 Gateway & E-SBC | User's Manual
Table 60-1: Ethernet Port Information Table Description
Parameter Description
Port Name Displays the name of the port.
Active Displays whether the port is active ("Yes") or not ("No").
Speed Displays the speed of the Ethernet port.
Duplex
Mode
Displays whether the port is half- or full-duplex.
State Displays the status of the port.
If the Ethernet Group contains a single port, the port status is always
"Forwarding" (i.e., data is being transmitted and received on the port).
If the Ethernet Group contains two ports (for 1+1 port redundancy):
■ If the 'Mode' of the port is 1RX/1TX, one port is "Forwarding" (i.e., active port)
and one port is "Disabled" (i.e., standby port).
■ If the 'Mode' of the port is 2RX/1TX or 2RX/2TX, both ports are "Forwarding".
Group
Member
Displays the Ethernet Group to which the port belongs.
Viewing Static Routes Status
You can view the status of static IP routes, configured in the Static Routes table (see Configuring
Static IP Routing) and routes through the Default Gateway.
The status of the static routes can be one of the following:
■ "Active": Static route is used by the device.
■ "Inactive": Static route is not used. When the destination IP address is not on the same
segment with the next hop, or the interface does not exist, the route state changes to
"Inactive".
➢ To view the status of static IP routing:
■ Open the Static Route Status table (Monitor menu > Monitor tab > Network Status folder >
Static Route Status).
Viewing IDS Active Blacklist
You can view remote hosts that are currently blacklisted by the device's Intrusion Detection Sys-
tem (IDS) in the IDS Active Black List table. For more information on IDS configuration and black-
lists, see Intrusion Detection System on page147
For devices in High-Availability (HA) mode, all the table's entries are deleted upon an
HA switchover.
