trunkShow
trunkShow
Displays trunking information.
Synopsis trunkshow [-perf] [-swname]
Description Use this command to display trunking information of both E_Ports and EX_Ports. The command displays the
following fields:
Trunking Group Number
Displays each trunking group on a switch. All ports that are part of this trunking group are
displayed.
Port to port connections
Displays the port-to-port trunking connections.
WWN
Displays the world wide name of the connected port.
Domain
Displays the domain IDs of the switches directly connected to the physical ports. In case of
an FC Router backbone fabric interlinking several edge fabrics, the domain ID displayed for
an E_Port trunk refers to a domain of a switch within the backbone fabric, whereas the
domain ID displayed for an EX_Port trunk refers to the domain ID of a switch in the edge
fabric. Because they are independent fabrics, it is possible that both the backbone and the
edge fabric may have the same domain ID assigned to switches. If this is the case, run
switchShow to obtain information on the port types of the local switch and the WWNs of
the remote switches. Refer to the Example section for an illustration.
deskew
The difference between the time it takes for traffic to travel over each ISL compared to the
time it takes through the shortest ISL in the group plus the minimum deskew value. The
value is expressed in nanoseconds divided by 10. The firmware automatically sets the
minimum deskew value for the shortest ISL, which is 15.
Master
Displays whether this trunking port connection is the master port connection for the
trunking group.
When used with the -perf option, the command output displays the following additional information:
bandwidth
The bandwidth (Rx, Tx, and the combined total for Tx+Rx) of the trunk group. Values are
displayed as either bits per second (Bps), kilobits per second (Kbps), megabits per second
(Mbps), or gigabits per second (Gbps), rounded down to the next integer.
throughput
Displays the throughput (Rx, Tx, and the combined total for Tx+Rx) of the trunk group.
Results are displayed for the previous second. Values are displayed as either bits per
second (Bps), kilobits per second (Kbps), megabits per second (Mbps), or gigabits per
second (Gbps), rounded down to the next integer.
