Diagnosing the Device & Network Diagnosing the Device Status Length Fault Location Displays the cable status. Test results include normal, closed, open and crosstalk. Normal : The cable is connected normally. Closed: A short circuit is being caused by abnormal contact of wires in the cable. Open: No device is connected to the other end or the connection is broken. Crosstalk: Impedance mismatch due to the poor quality of the cable. If the connection status is normal, the length range of the cable is displayed. If the connection status is short, close or crosstalk, here displays the length from the port to the trouble spot. 1.2 Using the CLI On privileged EXEC mode or any other configuration mode, you can use the following command to check the connection status of the cable that is connected to the switch. show cable-diagnostics interface { fastEthernet port | gigabitEthernet port | ten-gigabitEthernet port } View the cable diagnostics of the connected Ethernet Port. port: Enter the port number in 1/0/1 format to check the result of the cable test. show cable-diagnostics careful interface { fastEthernet port | gigabitEthernet port | ten-gigabitEthernet port } View the cable diagnostics of the connected Ethernet Port. When taking the careful cable test, the switch will only test the cable for the port which is in the link-down status. port: Enter the port number in 1/0/1 format to check the result of the cable test. The following example shows how to check the cable diagnostics of port 1/0/2: Switch#show cable-diagnostics interface gigabitEhternet 1/0/2 Port Pair Status Length Error Gi1/0/2 Pair-A Normal 2 (+/- 10m) --- Pair-B Normal 2 (+/- 10m) --- Pair-C Normal 0 (+/- 10m) --- Pair-D Normal 2 (+/- 10m) --- User Guide 815
