Monitoring Ethernet Switching
Purpose
Use the monitoring feature to view details that the EX Series switch maintains in its Ethernet switching table. These are details about the nodes on the LAN, such as VLAN name, VLAN ID, member interfaces, MAC addresses, and so on.
Action
To display Ethernet switching details in the J-Web interface, select Monitor > Switching > Ethernet Switching.
To view Ethernet switching details in the CLI, enter the following commands:
- show ethernet-switching table
- show vlans
- show ethernet-switching interfaces
Meaning
Table 1 summarizes the Ethernet switching output fields.
