Reporting On Interface Status - Avaya G250 Administration

Configuring monitoring applications

Reporting on interface status

You report on the status of an interface using the show interfaces command. The command
reports on the administrative status of the interface, its operational status, and its extended
operational status (the ICMP keepalive status). For information about ICMP keepalive status,
refer to ICMP keepalive
For example, if an interface is enabled but normal keepalive packets are failing, show interfaces
displays:
FastEthernet 10/2 is up, line protocol is down
However, if normal keepalive reports that the connection is up but ICMP keepalive fails, the
display is:
FastEthernet 10/2 is up, line protocol is down (no KeepAlive)
The interface status is reported according to the following table:
