Using Friendly (Optional) Port Names - HP Aruba JL253A Management And Configuration Manual

For arubaos-switch 16.08

Table of Contents

Where a port is linked to another device, this command lists the MDI mode the port is currently using.

In the case of ports configured for Auto ( auto-mdix), the MDI mode appears as either MDI or MDIX,

depending upon which option the port has negotiated with the device on the other end of the link.

In the case of ports configured for MDI or MDIX, the mode listed in this display matches the configured setting.

If the link to another device was up, but has gone down, this command shows the last operating MDI mode the

port was using.

If a port on a given switch has not detected a link to another device since the last reboot, this command lists

the MDI mode to which the port is currently configured.

The show interfaces config displays the following data when port A1 is configured for auto-mdix, port A2

is configured for mdi, and port A3 is configured for mdix:

Displaying the current MDI configuration

switch(config)# show interfaces config

Using friendly (optional) port names

This feature enables you to assign alphanumeric port names of your choosing to augment automatically assigned

numeric port names. This means you can configure meaningful port names to make it easier to identify the source

of information listed by some show commands. (Note that this feature augments port numbering, but does not

replace it.)
