Verifying Integrated Routing and Bridging Interface Status and Statistics

Purpose

Determine status information and traffic statistics for integrated routing and bridging (IRB) interfaces.

Action

Display IRB interfaces and their current states:

user@switch> show interfaces irb terse
Interface               Admin Link Proto    Local                 Remote
irb                     up    up  
irb.111                 up    up   inet     111.111.111.1/24
...

Display Layer 2 VLANs, including any tags assigned to the VLANs and the interfaces associated with the VLANs:

user@switch> show vlans
Routing instance        VLAN name             Tag         Interfaces
default-switch          irb                      101

default-switch          support                  111

                                                             ge-0/0/18.0

...

Display Ethernet switching table entries for the VLAN that is attached to the IRB interface:

MAC flags (S -static MAC, D -dynamic MAC, L -locally learned
           SE -Statistics enabled, NM -Non configured MAC, R -Remote PE MAC)

Routing instance : default-switch
    Vlan                MAC                 MAC         Age    Logical
    Name                address             flags              interface
    support             00:01:02:03:04:05   S             -   ge-0/0/18.0
...

Display the ingress-counting statistics of an IRB interface with either the show interfaces irb detail command or the show interfaces irb extensive command. Ingress counting is displayed as Input bytes and Input packets and egress counting is displayed as Output bytes and Output packets under Transit Statistics.

user@switch> show interfaces irb .111 detail
Logical interface irb.111 (Index 65) (SNMP ifIndex 503) (HW Token 100) (Generation 131)
Flags: SNMP-Traps 0x4000  Encapsulation: ENET2
Bandwidth: 1000mbps
Routing Instance: default-switch Bridging Domain: irb+111
Traffic statistics:
	Input bytes:   	17516756 
	Output bytes:  	411764	
	Input packets: 	271745	
	Output packets:	8256		
Local statistics:
	Input bytes:   	3240
	Output bytes:  	411764
	Input packets: 	54
	Output packets:	8256
Transit statistics:
	Input bytes:   	17513516  	0 bps
	Output bytes:  	0				0 bps
	Input packets: 	271745		0 pps
	Output packets:	0				0 pps
Protocol inet, MTU: 1514, Generation: 148, Route table: 0
	Flags: None
	Addresses, Flags: iS-Preferred  Is-Primary
		Destination: 50.1.1/24, Local: 50.1.1.1, Broadcast: 50.1.1.255, Generation: 136

Meaning

  • show interfaces irb terse displays a list of interfaces, including IRB interfaces, and their current states (up, down).
  • show vlans displays a list of VLANs, including any tags assigned to the VLANs and the interfaces associated with the VLANs.
  • show ethernet-switching table displays the Ethernet switching table entries, including VLANs attached to the IRB interface.
  • show interfaces irb detail displays IRB interface ingress counting as Input Bytes and Input Packets under Transit Statistics.
