Description
Interface
The port or trunk ID.
Type
The interface type, which can be one of the following:
Normal—The port is a normal port, which means it is not a Link Aggregation Group
(LAG) member or configured for port mirroring. All ports are normal ports by default.
Trunk Member—The port is a member of a trunk.
Mirrored—The port is configured to mirror its traffic (ingress, egress, or both) to another
port (the probe port).
Probe—The port is configured to receive mirrored traffic from one or more source ports.
Admin Mode
The administrative mode of the interface. If a port or trunk is administratively disabled, it
cannot forward traffic.
Enabled: Administratively enabled.
Disabled: Administratively disabled.
D-Disabled: Automatically disabled by the system due to error conditions. For example,
an interface may be disabled if it exceeded its rate limit. Please see error logs for more
information.
