The port-number variable specifies the slot and port number that you want to clear the interface
counters for.
Displaying interface name in Syslog
By default an interface’s slot number (if applicable) and port number are displayed when you
display Syslog messages. You can display the name of the interface instead of its number by
entering a command such as the following.
Brocade(config)# ip show-portname
This command is applied globally to all interfaces on the Brocade device.
Syntax: [no] Ip show-portname
When you display the messages in the Syslog, you see the interface name under the Dynamic Log
Buffer section. The actual interface number is appended to the interface name. For example, if the
interface name is “lab” and its port number is “2”, you see “lab2” displayed as in the example
below.
Displaying ARP entries
You can display the ARP cache and the static ARP table. The ARP cache contains entries for devices
attached to the Brocade device. The static ARP table contains the user-configured ARP entries. An
entry in the static ARP table enters the ARP cache when the entry’s interface comes up.
The tables require separate display commands.
Displaying the ARP cache
To display the contents of the ARP cache, enter the following command at any CLI level.
Syntax: show arp [ethernet slot/port | mac-address xxxx.xxxx.xxxx [mask] | ip-addr [ip-mask]]
[num] [| begin expression | exclude expression | include expression]
The ethernet slot/portnum parameter lets you restrict the display to entries for a specific port.
