Obtaining Status and Statistical Information
You can obtain general and detailed WAN port statistical information on all WSX boards in the 
switch, a single WSX board, individual ports, and Frame Relay and PPP protocols. The 
wpstatus command is used to provide this information. This information includes types of 
physical interface, access rate of the Frame Relay line, and errors. In addition, the wpstatus 
command can display the number of frames received and transmitted.
Obtaining Information on All Boards in a Switch
To obtain status information on all WSX boards in a switch, you enter the wpstatus command 
without any parameters as follows:
wpstatus
or
wps
This command displays a screen similar to the following (In this example, the port parameters 
being displayed are for a system that contains a 2-port WSX-BRI module in slot 4, an 8-port 
WSX module in slot 5, and a 2-port WSX in slot 8.):
