Meaning
The sample output from the show ethernet-switching interfaces command shows that three of the down interfaces specify the reason that the interface is disabled:
- MAC limit exceeded—The interface is temporarily disabled because of a MAC limit error. The disabled interface is automatically restored to service when the disable-timeout expires.
- MAC move limit exceeded—The interface is temporarily disabled because of a MAC move limit error. The disabled interface is automatically restored to service when the disable-timeout expires.
- Storm control in efffect —The interface is temporarily disabled because of a storm control error. The disabled interface is automatically restored to service when the disable-timeout expires.
