Display the Fast Ethernet or Gigabit Ethernet Interface LINK Alarm

Problem

To display the Fast Ethernet or Gigabit Ethernet LINK alarm, use the following Junos OS command-line interface (CLI) operational mode command:

Solution

user@host> show interfaces (fe-fpc/pic/port | ge-fpc/pic/port) extensive

Sample Output

The following sample output is for a Fast Ethernet interface:

Meaning

The sample output shows where the alarm and other errors might be occurring and any counters that are incrementing. The only alarm associated with Fast Ethernet or Gigabit Ethernet interfaces is the LINK alarm. A LINK alarm indicates a physical problem. To isolate where the physical problem might be occurring, conduct loopback testing. See Checklist for Using Loopback Testing for Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet Interfaces for information on conducting a loopback test.

Note: Since link status is polled once every second, some items that require fast link down detection, such as Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) fast reroute, take longer to execute.
