Usage
Information
Use the show interfaces command for details on a specific interface.
NOTE: In the CLI output, the power value is rounded to a 3-digit value. For
receive/transmit power that is less than 0.000, an snmp query returns the
corresponding dbm value even though the CLI displays as 0.000.
NOTE: After the counters are cleared, the line-rate continues to increase until
it reaches the maximum line rate. When the maximum line rate is reached,
there is no change in the line-rate.

Present pluggable media wavelength, type, and rate. The
error scenarios are:
• Wavelength, Non-qualified — Dell Force10 ID is not
present, but wavelength information is available from
XFP or SFP serial data
• Wavelength, F10 unknown — Dell Force10 ID is present,
but not able to determine the optics type
• Unknown, Non-qualified — if wavelength is reading
error, and F10 ID is not present
Dell Networking allows unsupported SFP and XFP
transceivers to be used, but Dell Networking OS might not
