The Packet Port Status window displays a node's negotiation speed and link state.

From the SBC main screen, navigate to Monitoring > Dashboard > Ports > Ethernet Port > Packet Port Status or
Monitoring > System > Category: Hardware Status > Ports > Ethernet Port > Packet Port Status
All
 > Ethernet Port > Packet Port Status

The Packet Port Status window displays.

Note:

The following two figures show example Packet Port Status output. Depending on your hardware model and interface configuration, the output will differ.

 Packet Port Status - 4 x 1 Gbps Mode for Standalone 5400 Example

Packet Port Status - 2 x 10 Gbps Mode for HA 5400 Example

 

The following output is displayed:

Packet Port Status parameters

ParameterDescription
CE NameThe server name.
Port NameThe name of this port.
If IndexThe unique interface index of this management NIF.
Mac AddressThe MAC address of the network interface.
Negotiated SpeedThe negotiated interface speed.
Max Bandwidth

This parameter shows the maximum bandwidth that the port is capable of supporting

For example,

  • For SBC 7000 Series platform, 95% of 10 Gigabit (Gb) port is 1,187,500,000 bytes/second.
  • For SBC 5000 Series platform, 95% of 1 Gb port is 118,750,000 bytes/second.
Allocated BandwidthThe bandwidth (bytes/second) allocated for a particular port for active media streams.
Rx Actual BandwidthThe actual Rx bandwidth, which is used for a particular port (bytes/second).
Tx Actual BandwidthThe actual Tx bandwidth, which is used for a particular port (bytes/second).
Bandwidth Usage This parameter shows the percentage of load (Allocated Bandwidth) for a particular port using the formula:
Allocated Bandwidth/Max Bandwidth * 100
Bandwidth DeviationThis parameter shows the percentage of deviation of actual bandwidth from allocated bandwidth.
Link StateThe state of the interface.
