Setting The Alarm Interval; Displaying Information About Installed Media - Dell PowerConnect B-FCXs Configuration Manual

Use the no form of the command to disable digital optical monitoring.

Setting the alarm interval

You can optionally change the interval between which alarms and warning messages are sent. The
default interval is three minutes. To change the interval, use the following command.
PowerConnect(config)#interface ethernet 1/1 to 1/2
PowerConnect(config-mif-e10000-1/1-1/2)#optical-monitor 10
Syntax: [no] optical-monitor [<alarm-interval>]
For <alarm-interval>, enter a value between 1 and 65535. Enter 0 to disable alarms and warning
messages.
NOTE
The commands no optical-monitor and optical-monitor 0 perform the same function. That is, they
both disable digital optical monitoring.

Displaying information about installed media

Use the show media, show media slot, and show media ethernet commands to obtain information
about the media devices installed per device, per slot, and per port. The results displayed from
these commands provide the Type, Vendor, Part number, Version and Serial number of the SFP or
XFP optical device installed in the port. 1G M-C indicates 1b Gbps copper media. If no SFP or XFP
device is installed in a port, the "Type" field will display "EMPTY".
Use the show media command to obtain information about the media devices installed in a device.
