This command displays all pertinent information about the IP interface. The argument unit/slot/port corresponds to a physical routing interface or VLAN routing interface. The keyword vlan is used to specify the VLAN ID of the routing VLAN directly instead of in a unit/slot/port format.
| Format | show ip interface {unit/slot/port | vlan 1-4093 | loopback 0-7} |
| Mode |
|
| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| Routing Interface Status | Determine the operational status of IPv4 routing Interface. The possible values are Up or Down. |
| Primary IP Address | The primary IP address and subnet masks for the interface. This value appears only if you configure it. |
| Method | Shows whether the IP address was configured manually or acquired from a DHCP server. |
| Secondary IP Address | One or more secondary IP addresses and subnet masks for the interface. This value appears only if you configure it. |
| Helper IP Address | The helper IP addresses configured by the ip helper-address (Interface Config) command. |
| Routing Mode | The administrative mode of router interface participation. The possible values are enable or disable. This value is configurable. |
| Administrative Mode | The administrative mode of the specified interface. The possible values of this field are enable or disable. This value is configurable. |
| Forward Net Directed Broadcasts | Displays whether forwarding of network-directed broadcasts is enabled or disabled. This value is configurable. |
| Proxy ARP | Displays whether Proxy ARP is enabled or disabled on the system. |
| Local Proxy ARP | Displays whether Local Proxy ARP is enabled or disabled on the interface. |
| Active State | Displays whether the interface is active or inactive. An interface is considered active if its link is up and it is in forwarding state. |
| Link Speed Data Rate | An integer representing the physical link data rate of the specified interface. This is measured in Megabits per second (Mbps). |
| MAC Address | The burned in physical address of the specified interface. The format is 6 two-digit hexadecimal numbers that are separated by colons. |
| Encapsulation Type | The encapsulation type for the specified interface. The types are: Ethernet or SNAP. |
| IP MTU | The maximum transmission unit (MTU) size of a frame, in bytes. |
| Bandwidth | Shows the bandwidth of the interface. |
| Destination Unreachables | Displays whether ICMP Destination Unreachables may be sent (enabled or disabled). |
| ICMP Redirects | Displays whether ICMP Redirects may be sent (enabled or disabled). |
| DHCP Client Identifier | The client identifier is displayed in the output of the command only if DHCP is enabled with the client-id option on the in-band interface. See ip address dhcp. |
| Interface Suppress Status | Identifies whether the interface is suppressed. |
| Interface Name | The user-configured name of the interface. |
| Unicast Reverse Path Forwarding Mode | The uRPF mode on the interface. See ip verify unicast source reachable-via. |
| Unicast Reverse Path Forwarding Allow-Default | Identifies whether the uRPF allow-default parameter has been set. See ip verify unicast source reachable-via. |
Example: The following shows example CLI display output for the command..
