Device Explorer
This explorer provides additional information on full SNA devices and their interfaces.
It displays a table view of the ports and existing LAGs in the switch. Every entry in the table
has several basic columns, and a small number of additional columns that appear only when
the relevant overlay is active:
The following columns are displayed in the Device Explorer table:
• Port/LAG Name — Full interface name.
• Unit ID — Displays only in the port table and for stacked switches.
• Port Type — Displays only in the port table. Physical type of the port.
• Admin Status — The interface’s administrative status.
• Operational Status — The interface’s operational state. If the interface is
suspended, the suspension reason appears in parenthesis.
• LAG Membership — Displays only in the port table. If the port is a member of a
LAG, this column shows the LAG ID.
• Port Members — Displays only in the LAG table. Displays a list of the ports that
are members in this LAG. This field may contain a long list of ports. If the complete
list does not fit in the table, it may be viewed on the right-hand information.
• Description — Description of the interface. Uses the MIB ifAlias.
• When the Link Utilization overlay is selected, the following columns are displayed:
- Current Speed — Current speed of the interface (10M, 100M, 1G…).
