Figure 22-5. Command Example
Show Hardware Commands
The show hardware command tree consists of EXEC Privilege commands used with the Aggregator. These
commands display information from a hardware sub-component and from hardware-based feature tables.
Table 22-2 lists the
show hardware commands available as of the latest FTOS version.
Note: Use the show hardware commands only under the guidance of Dell Force10 Technical Assistance
Center.
Table 22-2. show hardware Commands
Command Description
show hardware stack-unit {0-5} cpu management
statistics
View the internal interface status of the stack-unit CPU port which
connects to the external management interface.
show hardware stack-unit {0-5} cpu data-plane
statistics
View the driver-level statistics for the data-plane port on the CPU for the
specified stack-unit. It provides insight into the packet types entering the
CPU to see whether CPU-bound traffic is internal (IPC traffic) or network
control traffic, which the CPU must process.
show hardware stack-unit {0-5} buffer total-buffer
View the modular packet buffers details per stack unit and the mode of
allocation.
show hardware stack-unit {0-5} buffer unit {0-1}
total-buffer
View the modular packet buffers details per unit and the mode of
allocation.
show hardware stack-unit {0-5} buffer unit {0-1}
port {1-64 | all} buffer-info
View the forwarding plane statistics containing the packet buffer usage per
port per stack unit.
show hardware stack-unit {0-5} buffer unit {0-1}
port {1-64} queue {0-14 | all} buffer-info
View the forwarding plane statistics containing the packet buffer statistics
per COS per port.
show hardware stack-unit {0-5} cpu party-bus
statistics
View input and output statistics on the party bus, which carries
inter-process communication traffic between CPUs.
show hardware stack-unit {0-5} drops unit {0-0}
port {33-56}
View the ingress and egress internal packet-drop counters, MAC counters
drop, and FP packet drops for the stack unit on per port basis. It assists in
identifying the stack unit/port pipe/port that may experience internal drops.
