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. The Packet Port Status window displays.

Packet Port Status

By default only ten entries are displayed in a view. You can choose the number of entries to be displayed under the Show entries drop down box. 

The following fields are displayed:

Packet Port Status parameters

ParameterDescription
Ce nameThe server name.
Port NameThe name of this port.
If IndexThe unique if 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 parameters shows percentage of load (Allocated Bandwidth) for a particular port using the formula:
Allocated Bandwidth/Max Bandwidth * 100
Bandwidth DeviationThis parameters shows the percentage of deviation of actual bandwidth from allocated bandwidth.
Link StateThe state of the interface.
