NETGEAR 8800 Chassis Switch CLI Manual Syntax Description mgmt port_list stacking-port-list bandwidth bytes packets Specifies the management port. Specifies one or more ports or slots and ports. Specifies one or more stacking slots and ports. Specifies port utilization as percentage of bandwidth. Specifies port utilization in bytes per second. Specifies port utilization in packets per second. Default N/A. Usage Guidelines The software continuously monitors port utilization and calculates bandwidth as a function of each port's maximum link capacity. The total utilization display presents real-time statistics. Use the to toggle the real-time displayed information for packets, bytes, and bandwidth in that order. When you use a parameter (packets, bytes, or bandwidth) with the command, the display for the specified type shows a snapshot per port when you issued the command. When the show ports utilization command is run with the bandwidth, bytes, or packets options, the command may need to be repeated a few times in order for the NETGEAR 8800 software to gather enough statistics to calculate appropriate values. If you do not specify a port number or range of ports, port utilization information is displayed for all ports. This status information may be useful for your technical support representative if you have a network problem. Example The following command displays utilization statistics for port 1 on a stand-alone switch: show ports 1 utilization The following command displays utilization statistics for slot 3, port 1: show ports 3:1 utilization The following example shows sample output from the show ports utilization packets command: Link Utilization Averages Mon Oct 6 22:38:25 2008 Port Link Rx Peak Rx Tx Peak Tx State pkts/sec pkts/sec pkts/sec pkts/sec 1:1 A 47 191 0 0 262 | Chapter 5.
