How to view interface type in HP ProCurve

[leeffa]

In Cisco device, we can issue command: show ip int bri to view all interface and ip address,

Base on output, we can identify interface type: GigabitEthernet, FastEthernet, or Ethernet.

CSW-1#show ip int bri

Interface                 IP-Address     OK?   Method     Status                Protocol

Vlan1                     10.11.0.4           YES    manual    up                        up

GigabitEthernet1/1        unassigned     YESunset down                  down

FastEthernet4/1            unassigned     YESunset  down                 down

....

In  HP ProCurve, how can I do this?

And one thing more, in HP ProCurve documents, I only see "Port" concept, without interface like cisco deivce. ex: 

1,2,3...

or : A1, A2, A3, ...B1, B2..

Please tell me, what does "A", "B' mean?

Thank a lot.

HI,

The first command is very similar:

HP Procurve# sh interfaces brief

Status and Counters - Port Status

| Intrusion MDI Flow Bcast
Port Type | Alert Enabled Status Mode Mode Ctrl Limit
-------- --------- + --------- ------- ------ ---------- ---- ---- -----
A1 100/1000T | No Yes Up 1000FDx MDIX off 0
A2 100/1000T | No Yes Up 1000FDx MDIX off 0
A3 100/1000T | No Yes Up 1000FDx MDIX off 0
A4 100/1000T | No Yes Up 1000FDx MDIX off 0
A5 100/1000T | No Yes Up 100FDx MDIX off 0

The "A", "B", etc. means the SLOT/MODULE where the port is located. Compared to Cisco, would be something something like this:

A1 = FastEthernet1/1
B2 = FastEthernet2/2
C5 = FastEthernet3/5

If you had a HP Procurve in front of you, you'd understand better ;)

Hi again,

Anyway here http://h17007.www1.hp.com/docs/interoperability/Cisco/HP-Networking-and-Cisco-CLI-Reference-Guide_June_10_WW_Eng_ltr.pdf you can found good CISCO/PROCURVE commands and more stuff comparative.

Thanks.

But how about interface type  (Ethernet, FastEthernet, GigabitEthernet)? Is that in column Type?

In some documents, this column can be:  10/100T, 100/1000T,10GbE-CX4, 10GbE-LR, please tell me, what does it mean?

Hi,

Ethernet = 10/100T = 10FDx/HDx

Fast Ethernet = 100/1000T = 100FDx/HDx

Giga Ethernet =  1000BASE-T = 1000FDx/HDx

And here you can read about the different types of 10GbE.
