Checking the status of Fibre Channel and Ethernet ports by using the CLI

You can use the command-line interface (CLI) to check the status of the Fibre Channel and Ethernet ports.

Enter the following CLI command to check the status of the Fibre Channel and Ethernet ports:

The previous example shows information for the Fibre Channel and Ethernet ports. For each port, the port ID and the status of the port are displayed. In this example, the ports show statuses of active, inactive_configured, and inactive_unconfigured.

The following example shows information for the Fibre Channel ports when a 32 Gb adapter is installed.

You can use the command-line interface (CLI) to check the status of the Ethernet ports.

Enter the following CLI command to check the status of the Ethernet ports:
