Displaying IP interface information
To display IP interface information, enter the following command at any CLI level.
Syntax: show ip interface [ethernet <slot/port>] | [loopback <num>] | [ve <num>]
This display shows the following information.
To display detailed IP information for a specific interface, enter a command such as the following.
Port The Layer 4 TCP or UDP port the policy checks for in packets. The port can
be displayed by its number or, for port types the router recognizes, by the
well-known name. For example, TCP port 80 can be displayed as HTTP.
NOTE: This field applies only if the IP protocol is TCP or UDP.
Operator The comparison operator for TCP or UDP port names or numbers.
NOTE: This field applies only if the IP protocol is TCP or UDP.
TABLE 52 CLI display of interface IP configuration information
This field... Displays...
Interface The type and the slot and port number of the interface.
IP-Address The IP address of the interface.
NOTE: If an “s” is listed following the address, this is a secondary address.
When the address was configured, the interface already had an IP
address in the same subnet, so the software required the
“secondary” option before the software could add the interface.
OK? Whether the IP address has been configured on the interface.
Method Whether the IP address has been saved in NVRAM. If you have set the IP
address for the interface in the CLI, but have not saved the configuration,
the entry for the interface in the Method field is “manual”.
Status The link status of the interface. If you have disabled the interface with the
disable command, the entry in the Status field will be “administratively
down”. Otherwise, the entry in the Status field will be either “up” or “down”.
Protocol Whether the interface can provide two-way communication. If the IP address
is configured, and the link status of the interface is up, the entry in the
protocol field will be “up”. Otherwise the entry in the protocol field will be
“down”.
