portShow

Edge fabric’s version stamp
If the EX_PORT is connected to an edge switch with FCS policy enforcement,
the version of the security database is displayed. Otherwise displays N/A.
The portShow command displays FCoE ports with "Protocol: FCoE" and "portSpeed: 10Gbps". Only
a subset of information is displayed. Refer to the example section for an illustration. Use fcoe
--cfgshow and fcoe --loginshow to display FCoE-specific configuration details.
If the port is configured as a VE_Port, the command shows FC and Physical layer attributes of the
underlying port, as well as status information regarding the underlying FCIP link for those logical FC
ports that are instantiated over a physical 1/10GbE port. Refer to the example section for an
illustration.
Following the general information, the command displays three columns of counters. The first
column shows interrupt statistics:
Interrupts Total number of interrupts.
Unknown Interrupts that are not counted elsewhere.
Lli Low-level interface (physical state, primitive sequences).
Proc_rqrd Frames delivered for embedded N_Port processing.
Timed_out Frames that have timed out.
Rx_flushed Frames requiring translation.
Tx_unavail Frames returned from an unavailable transmitter.
Free_buffer Free buffer available interrupts.
Overrun Buffer overrun interrupts.
Suspended Transmission suspended interrupts.
Parity_err Central memory parity errors.
2_parity_err Secondary transmission parity errors.
CMI_bus_err Control message interface errors.
The second column displays link error status block counters.
The third column shows the number of F_RJTs and F_BSYs generated. For L_Ports, the third
column also displays the number of loop initialization protocols (LIPs) received, number of LIPs
transmitted, and the last LIP received.
