Resetting Statistics Counters; Enabling And Disabling Interfaces - Alcatel-Lucent OmniSwitch 6800 Series Network Configuration Manual

Configuring Ethernet Ports

Resetting Statistics Counters

The interfaces no l2 statistics
range of ports, or all ports on a switch (slot).
To reset Layer 2 statistics on an entire slot, enter interfaces followed by the slot number and no l2
statistics. For example, to reset all Layer 2 statistics counters on slot 2, enter:
-> interfaces 2 no l2 statistics
To reset Layer 2 statistics on a single port, enter interfaces followed by the slot number, a slash (/), the
port number, and no l2 statistics. For example, to reset all Layer 2 statistics counters on port 3 on slot 2,
enter:
-> interfaces 2/3 no l2 statistics
To reset Layer 2 statistics on a range of ports, enter interfaces followed by the slot number, a slash (/), the
first port number, a hyphen (-), the last port number, and no l2 statistics. For example, to reset all Layer 2
statistics counters on ports 1 through 3 on slot 2, enter:
-> interfaces 2/1-3 no l2 statistics
As an option, you can document the interface type by entering ethernet, fastethernet, or gigaethernet
before the slot number. For example, to reset all Layer 2 statistics counters on port 3 on slot 2 and docu-
ment the port as Gigabit Ethernet, enter:
-> interfaces gigaethernet 2/3 no l2 statistics
Note. The show interfaces,
be used to display Layer 2 statistics (e.g., input and output errors, deferred frames received, unicast pack-
ets transmitted). For information on using these commands, see the OmniSwitch CLI Reference Guide.

Enabling and Disabling Interfaces

The interfaces admin
or all ports on an entire switch (NI module).
To enable or disable an entire slot, enter interfaces followed by the slot number, admin, and the desired
administrative setting (either up or down). For example, to administratively disable slot 2, enter:
-> interfaces 2 admin down
To enable or disable a single port, enter interfaces followed by the slot number, a slash (/), the port
number, admin, and the desired administrative setting (either up or down). For example, to administra-
tively disable port 3 on slot 2, enter:
-> interfaces 2/3 admin down
To enable or disable a range of ports, enter interfaces followed by the slot number, a slash (/), the first
port number, a hyphen (-), the last port number, admin, and the desired administrative setting (either up
or down). For example, to administratively disable ports 1 through 3 on slot 2, enter:
-> interfaces 2/1-3 admin down
