Telnet Commands
gbicShow
Display serial ID GBIC information.
Syntax
gbicShow [slotnumber/][portnumber]
Availability All users
References to GBIC also apply to SFP.
Description Use this command to display information about Serial Identification
GBICs (also known as module definition 4 GBICs). These GBICs
provide extended information that describes the GBICs capabilities,
interfaces, manufacturer, and other information.
GBICs are polled by a background process. The gbicshow command
retrieves the latest information from cache. The cache values for each GBIC
are updated when the GBIC is hot plugged, when it is removed, or when the
Fabric OS polls the GBICs. In the ED-12000B, if there is a lot of activity on the
switch, poll updates may take several minutes.
Use this command with no operand to display a summary of all
GBICs in the switch. The summary shows the GBIC type (see
switchShow for an explanation of the two-letter codes) and, for Serial
ID GBIC, the vendor name and GBIC serial number.
Use this command with a port number operand to display detailed
information about the Serial ID GBIC in that port.
For Finisar smart GBICs, four additional fields are displayed: module
temperature, received optical power, transmitted optical power
(longwave only), and laser diode drive current.
