# Displaying CIP Port Interface Information

To display CIP port interface information from the CiscoView Configure Port window, select Interface from the CATEGORY popup menu. The following information is displayed:

Description (ifDesc)

Type (ifType)

Mtu (ifMtu)

Speed (ifSpeed)

Physical Address (ifPhysAddress)

Admin Status (ifAdminStatus)

Operational Status (ifOperStatus)

Last Change (ifLastChange)

# Description (ifDesc)

Describes the interface (for example, the product name, manufacturer, and hardware version).

# Type (ifType)

Specifies the network interface type defined in the MIB-II interface table.

For example, the interface type ethernet-csmacd indicates the CSMA/CD Ethernet Media Access Control (MAC) protocol, as defined by Digital, Intel, and Xerox ("DIX"). Refer to an SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) reference book for a full list of the interface table types.

# Mtu (ifMtu)

Specifies the size (in octets) of the largest protocol data unit that can be sent or received on the interface.

# Speed (ifSpeed)

Provides an estimate of current bandwidth in bits per second. If the value is constant or cannot be measured, nominal bandwidth is used.

# Physical Address (ifPhysAddress)

Displays a physical address, such as an Ethernet MAC address, a phone number, or a Packet Data Net address. Where not relevant, a 0-length octet string is provided.

# Admin Status (ifAdminStatus)

Specifies the desired interface state. Possible settings are up, down, or testing.

# Operational Status (ifOperStatus)

Indicates the current actual operating state of the interface.

# Last Change (ifLastChange)

Specifies (in hundredths of seconds) the value of the sysUpTime setting when the interface entered its current operational state. 0 is displayed if the current state was entered before last initialization of management entity.
