Basic Validation for the Cisco Nexus 5000 series switch configuration
In order to have a fully supported configuration the cables or SFP+ transceivers must only be Cisco-
branded products for the Cisco Nexus. The following command is used to give a port status overview:
show interface brief.
This example has been shortened from the actual results but will display the results of active ports and
VFC interfaces. Verify that the ports which are expected to have links show up correctly.
“show interface brief” command Figure 15.
