NOTE: When the port is provisioned as fiber and a copper cable is inserted, it is not detected by the device and hence no
syslog message is displayed.
If SFP is present when the port is being provisioned as copper, the system displays a syslog message.

View Advanced Interface Information
The following options have been implemented for the show [ip | running-config] interfaces commands for (only)
linecard interfaces.
When you use the configured keyword, only interfaces that have non-default configurations are displayed. Dummy linecard
interfaces (created with the linecard command) are treated like any other physical interface.
The following example lists the possible show commands that have the configured keyword available:
Dell#show interfaces configured
Dell#show interfaces linecard 0 configured
Dell#show interfaces tengigabitethernet 0 configured
Dell#show ip interface configured
Dell#show ip interface linecard 1 configured
Dell#show ip interface tengigabitethernet 1 configured
Dell#show ip interface br configured
Dell#show ip interface br linecard 1 configured
Dell#show ip interface br tengigabitethernet 1 configured
Dell#show running-config interfaces configured
Dell#show running-config interface tengigabitethernet 1 configured
In EXEC mode, the show interfaces switchport command displays only interfaces in Layer 2 mode and their relevant
configuration information. The show interfaces switchport command displays the interface, whether it supports IEEE
802.1Q tagging or not, and the VLANs to which the interface belongs.

Configuring the Interface Sampling Size
Although you can enter any value between 30 and 299 seconds (the default), software polling is done once every 15 seconds.
So, for example, if you enter “19”, you actually get a sample of the past 15 seconds.
All LAG members inherit the rate interval configuration from the LAG.
The following example shows how to configure rate interval when changing the default value.
To configure the number of seconds of traffic statistics to display in the show interfaces output, use the following command.
