show cable-diagnostics tdr
Table 2-7 lists the descriptions of the fields in the show cable-diagnostics tdr command output.
This is an example of output from the show interface interface-id command when TDR is running:
Switch# show interface gigabitethernet0/1
gigabitethernet0/1 is up, line protocol is up (connected: TDR in Progress)
This is an example of output from the show cable-diagnostics tdr interface interface-id command when
TDR is not running:
Switch# show cable-diagnostics tdr interface gigabitethernet0/1
% TDR test was never issued on gi0/1
If an interface does not support TDR, this message appears:
% TDR test is not supported on switch 1

• Normal—The pair of wires is properly connected.
• Not completed—The test is running and is not completed.
• Not supported—The interface does not support TDR.
• Open—The pair of wires is open.
• Shorted—The pair of wires is shorted.
• ImpedanceMis—The impedance is mismatched.
