Monitoring Interface and Controller Status
The Cisco IOS software for the Catalyst 4500 series switch contains commands that you can enter at the EXEC prompt to
display information about the interface, including the version of the software and the hardware, the controller status, and
statistics about the interfaces. The following table lists some of the interface monitoring commands. (You can display the full
list of show commands by entering the show ? command at the EXEC prompt.)
To display information about the interface, enter one of the following commands:
This example shows how to display the status of Fast Ethernet interface 5/5:
Switch# show protocols fastethernet 5/5
FastEthernet5/5 is up, line protocol is up
Switch#
Clearing and Resetting the Interface
To clear the interface counters shown with the show interfaces command, enter this command:
Know if the OIR button has taken effect. The OIR LED on the uplink module turns GREEN
and the linecard status LED on the uplink module
turns off.
Disable the OIR button and force use of a CLI to
initiate an OIR.
Cannot be done.
