Verify the Status of the Logical Interface
Purpose
To verify the status of the logical interface, use the following two Junos OS CLI operational mode commands:
Action
Sample Output
The following sample output is for a T3 logical interface that is up:
user@router> show interfaces t3-1/0/0 Physical interface: t3-1/0/0, Enabled, Physical link is Up Interface index: 13, SNMP ifIndex: 12 Link-level type: Cisco-HDLC, MTU: 4474, Clocking: Internal, Speed: T3, Loopback: None, FCS: 16, Mode: C/Bit parity Device flags : Present Running Interface flags: Point-To-Point SNMP-Traps Link flags : No-Keepalives Input rate : 0 bps (0 pps) Output rate : 0 bps (0 pps) Active alarms : None Active defects : None Logical interface t3-1/0/0.0 (Index 126) (SNMP ifIndex 13) Flags: Point-To-Point SNMP-Traps Encapsulation: Cisco-HDLC Protocol inet, MTU: 4470, Flags: None Addresses, Flags: Is-Preferred Is-Primary Destination: 1.1.1.0/30, Local: 1.1.1.1 user@router> show interfaces terse t3-1/0/0 Interface Admin Link Proto Local Remote t3-1/0/0 up up t3-1/0/0.0 up up inet 1.1.1.1/30
Meaning
The sample output for the first command shows that the logical link is up because there are no flags indicating that the link layer is down. The output for the show interfaces terse command shows that logical interface t3-1/0/0 is up.
Sample Output
The following sample output is for a T3 logical interface that is down:
user@router> show interfaces t3-0/2/0 Physical interface: t3-0/2/0, Enabled, Physical link is Up Interface index: 13, SNMP ifIndex: 12 Link-level type: Cisco-HDLC, MTU: 4474, Clocking: Internal, Speed: T3, Loopback: None, FCS: 16, Mode: C/Bit parity Device flags : Present Running Interface flags: Link-Layer-Down Point-To-Point SNMP-Traps Link flags : Keepalives Keepalive settings: Interval 10 seconds, Up-count 1, Down-count 3 Keepalive: Input: 0 (never), Output: 9 (00:00:04 ago) Input rate : 0 bps (0 pps) Output rate : 0 bps (0 pps) Active alarms : None Active defects : None Logical interface t3-0/2/0.0 (Index 126) (SNMP ifIndex 13) Flags: Device-Down Point-To-Point SNMP-Traps Encapsulation: Cisco-HDLC Protocol inet, MTU: 4470, Flags: None Addresses, Flags: Dest-route-down Is-Preferred Is-Primary Destination: 1.1.1.0/30, Local: 1.1.1.1 user@router> show interfaces terse t3-0/2/0 Interface Admin Link Proto Local Remote t3-0/2/0 up down t3-0/2/0.0 up down inet 1.1.1.1/30
Meaning
The sample output for both commands shows that the logical interface is down. The first command shows that the link layer, device, and destination route are all down. The second command shows that logical interface t3-0/2/0 is down.
