Show ip interface brief command output

Hi,
I have seen 'show ip interface brief' command output.
For some interfaces 'method' it is showing 'NVRAM' and for some interfaces it is 'Manual'.
What does it mean?
Regards
SKR

hello,
what about CONFIG method. what is the difference between that and manual and how can I change it to CONFIG? this is related to the ASA 5585.
thanks!!

Is the "show interface brief" command 100% safe?

I am planning on performing a health check on multiple Cisco SAN switches. This check will be performed five or more times a day. I know that the "show" commands are usually safe commands, but I have seen instances where "show tech-support" has caused the supervisor to restart. This type of outage is not acceptable.
1) Does anyone know of an instance where "show interface brief" has caused any kind of problem?
2) I currently use Device Manager to perform health checks. Does Device Manager use a "show interface" command to display port states?
3) What kind of CPU usage does "show interface brief" have on a SAN switch?
4) Does anyone have a low-level explanation of what happens when a "show interface brief" command is executed?
5) Is it safe to run "show interface brief" many times a day and every day of the year?

i can tell you that we run "show int fc X" every 5 minutes. We use a perl script that telnets to the switch every 5 minutes, runs "show int fc X" on specific ports, dumps output to log file on the server and then parses it for link status. This is how we monitor our DWDM links.

Show ip interface brief

Just a quick question that I have been unable to find the answer to on the net.
I ran the "show ip interface brief" on one of my 3550 switches.
Under the "method" column I have some interfaces saying "NVRAM" and some saying "manual" Can anyone explain what the difference between the "manual" and "NVRAM" setting?
Thanks,
Craig.

Yes, i believe its how your interface obtains its IP address although i don't know how the device differentiates between manual and NVRAM.
Here are the possible values:
The method field has the following possible values:
RARP or SLARPReverse Address Resolution Protocol (RARP) or Serial Line Address Resolution Protocol (SLARP) request
BOOTPBootstrap protocol
TFTPConfiguration file obtained from Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) server
manualManually changed by CLI command
NVRAMConfiguration file in nonvolatile RAM (NVRAM)
IPCPip address negotiated command
DHCPip address dhcp command
unassignedNo IP address

Snmp oids for the command "show counters interface intx/y delta"

Hello,
I have a question about SNMP OIDs for the command "show counters interface intx/y delta" on Catalyst6500. The customer wants to create graphs for the following values:Overruns, qos0Outlost, InErrors, OutErrors, InDiscards, OutDiscards etc..
Is possible to get these values using SNMP??
Thank you
Roman

Thank you, Dan. These OIDs are for the output from the command "show interface int x/y". But I think, that these OIDs are not for the command "show interface int x/y delta".

Sample Command Output of show chassis inventory for CSS

Hi,
I am trying to get a sample command output of "show chassis inventory" for:
CSS 11501
CSS 11503
CSS 11506
Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance.
Mike

Hi Mchi,
When I use the command: show chassis inventory. I found :
Slot Module                           Serial
1     CSS5-SCM-2GE F0   JABxxxxxxx
2     CSS5-IOM-2GE E0   JAB08xxxxxx
3     CSS5-IOM-8FE F0   JAB0xxxxxxx
4     CSS503-SM-INT     JAB09xxxxxxx
this is the switch fabric module that connects the other modules.
This is an internal module and it can't be removed/replaced.
Use the show chassis command to display a chassis configuration for the CSS. The syntax and options for this command are as follows:
•show chassis - Displays a summary of the chassis configuration.
•show chassis slot number - Displays the operational parameters for a slot in a CSS 11503 or CSS 11506 chassis. Enter an integer value for the chassis slot number.
•show chassis verbose - Displays detailed information about the chassis configuration.
•show chassis flash - Displays the operational and locked Flash software code on the CSS 11501, and the CSS 11503 or CSS 11506 SCM and I/O modules. An asterisk (*) character before a Flash version of code and build number indicates that it is active.
•show chassis inventory - Displays the physical configuration of the CSS including part and serial numbers.
•show chassis session-processors - Displays the weight and power summary of the session processors in the CSS chassis.

Even a "show chassis verbose" command does not indicate the presence of a GBIC. It shows the Operational Status of a port as "online" whether there is a GBIC installed or not. For example, in the output below Slot 4 has a GBIC installed in port 4/1, but 4/2 is empty:

How to clear "show counter interface ..." counters in IOS 12.1(13)E

Under IOS 12.1(13)E, one can view the detailed interface counter using the command, for example :
show counter interface gigabitEthernet 10/7
It comes up with detailed counters in hexadecimal format. I need to know, if there is way, to clear these counters.
Thanks,

Why it is showing 26 MB Free of memory ....Can anybody please describe the TOP Command output.....

Hi, this doest look too good... " Swap: 8191992k total, 160k used"
this means you'r using some of you'r swap, "25708k buffers" and not becouse of you'r buffers.
try using ps -ef or top ( and sort by memory by hitting "m" ) and search for the process that uses you'r memory.

Parameter "dependencies" in show ip cef vrf command

Could you explain the meaning of "dependencies" parameter in the sh ip cef vrf <vrf> x.x.x.x detail command output? The word "recursive" is interested in too.
For example:
172.28.10.0/24, version 1840, epoch 0, cached adjacency to Serial0/1/3:0
0 packets, 0 bytes
Flow: AS 0, mask 24
tag information set, all rewrites owned
local tag: 118
via 172.28.250.13, 0 dependencies, recursive
next hop 172.28.250.13, Serial0/1/3:0 via 172.28.250.12/30 (vgtrk)
valid cached adjacency
tag rewrite with Se0/1/3:0, point2point, tags imposed {}
Thank you!

recursive means that the next-hop for this prefix, is just a IP address, so the real directly connected next-hop address and interface is obtained by doing a lookup to find the longest match for next-hop.
In this case, we can see that 172.28.250.13 resolve through 172.27.250.12/30, and it's next-hop interface is Serial0/1/3:0
The dependencies counter indicate, how many recursive prefixes, resolve through this particular prefix, if you look at 172.28.250.12/30 you will see that it's dependencies counter is 1 or larger, as it has at least this prefix resolving through it.

"show in itunes store" command missing from video library

updated to itunes 11.1, and ios7.
This isn't a pro or con diatribe, just a list of the minorish bugs that i have noticed:
First (probable?) bug:
With the latest update, the (control click) "show in itunes store" command is missing from all video layouts (unwatched, shows, genres) except "list".
I assume this is just a temporary bug, as it limits easy access to purchasable store content.
This is especially important since "check for available downloads", while still around, has been, as far as i can tell, completely nonfunctional for months.
I now have all my email notifications for passes turned on, and just manually click on the emails to download new content.
However, especially for shows with extra content, sometimes the email doesn't download the actual show, just the extra content.
for this reason, and for non pass shows, and just for general shopping and impulse buys, I liked to use the "show in itunes store" to easily check shows that i am currently interested in.
except that now it is gone.
Another (probable) bug:
I have a lot of purchased content, so i have the cloud turned off to control the flow of menu information. i don't need to see everything i have purchased all the time, only the newest shows that i actually have loaded onto the ipad. I still just load in the shows i want to watch from my main computer after i have downloaded them from apple to the hard drive, which i guess is now a bit old fashioned. ios7 doesn't seem to like this very much, as it initially displays the cloud content when opening the "video" app, before blanking and replacing it with the edited down version. But the real bug is this:
Now when i delete a video on the ipad, it crashes the "video" app.
And, instead of recognizing the delete when i sync to the computer, it ignores it and reloads the video onto the ipad.
......And finally:
There is still a tendency for the ipad and itunes to throw up the "sign in" pop up, often multiple times in a row, anywhere and for no reason, even when i am already signed in. Sometimes i can just hit "cancel" and it disappears, other times it forces me to retype my password. It's gotten a lot better and less frequent than when it first started earlier this year, but it's still around.
Having said this, I'm still, of course, a huge fan of the change earlier this year that keeps track of purchases and allows me redownload, instead of the old "lose it and its gone, tough luck" policy.

Ha. Maybe it's just me then. When i control click on a show, i'm getting:
In Library/TV Shows: Unwatched, Shows, and Genres:
play "[show]"
mark as watched
mark as unwatched
[depending on blue dot]
get info
rating
show description
show in finder
reset plays
show in playlist
copy
as opposed to, in List (and everywhere else):
play "[show]"
mark as watched
mark as unwatched
[depending on blue dot]
get info
rating
show description
show in finder
show in itunes store
get album artwork
reset plays
consolidate files
new playlist from selection
add to playlist
show in playlist
copy
delete
uncheck selection
apply sort field
I have my sidebar turned on, but it doesn't seem to make a difference if it is showing or not.
I looked around in settings, view, and window for a way to modify the control click menu, but couldn't find anything.
It's a very minor issue.
If your menu is working, maybe I just need to delete my copy of itunes and reinstall. Or change a setting somewhere.

Adobe Acrobat XI Pro scanner freezes up on Show Scanner Interface

My Acrobat XI Pro freezes up when the settings on my scanner (Epson Expression 10000XL - Graphic Arts Scanner) is set on "Native Mode" & "Show Scanner Interface". It will scan with the "Hide Scanner Interface". I have been using this same scanner with Acrobat XI, with these settings (Show Scanner Interface) for at least six months. I tried uninstalling then reinstalling XI & rebooted, but this did not help. I finally uninstalled XI then installed my old Acrobat 9 Pro, then it worked perfectly (this tells me that my problem is definitely with XI and not my scanner). I am very frustrated that I cannot use my new Acrobat program and have to go back to the old one, especially when I have been using the new one for so long without any problems. Does anyone have any ideas what the problem could be? I have Windows 7 (Service Pack 1)

You may want to ask in the Acrobat forum for scanning and OCR.

How to? multiline label containing exact system command output

Background info: I'm triggering a system command to display memory utilization. As you know, the "free" linux command displays many lines of text one after the other. It is similar to the mem command used in Window$.
I want to have a label displaying the command output as it is: multiple lines. Just like you see it in the console. I want to mirror whatever comes up on console after executing free from java.
Using html tags won't work out for me in this particular situation. It just doesn't do the trick. Still displays the LAST line of command output with or without html tags.
any ideas? it doesn't have to be a label. It can be anything as long as it works.
Again, as it is, it just displays the last line of the command output
//events will trigger every second
Timer t = new Timer(1000, new ActionListener(){
      public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent event)
//determine memory utilization.
        String cmd = "free -m";
    try {
     String line;
     Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmd);
     BufferedReader input =
       new BufferedReader
         (new InputStreamReader(p.getInputStream()));
     while ((line = input.readLine()) != null) {
       label.setText(line);
     input.close();
    catch (Exception err) {
     err.printStackTrace();
    t.start();

got it. thanks.

I am buying an audio interface with Firewire output, would I feed this into Firewire,USB or Thunderbolt for Garageband?

I am buying an audio interface with Firewire output, would I feed this into Firewire,USB or Thunderbolt for Garageband?

I don't have a H4 but do have a H2. Did you set the H4 as a audio interface, after you plug it in choose interface in the H4 screen?
Did you choose the H4 input channel in the track info?

Command output redirect question

Hi guys,
I am putting in a kron function to transfer the command output from all the switches and routers on our network to a tftp server.
I have the kron occurence and policy lists set up the way I want them and have tested the redirection of the command line output to the server.
The problem I have is that I want to back up the switches 3 or 4 times once a week to compare the configs to make sure that no unwanted changes are being made over the course of the month.
Is there a way to use a variable to change the file name when it redirects? Currently when the occurence runs the file modified time on the tftp server changes but the output doesnt append as I had hoped it would, i.e one file having the config copy in to the file over and over.
Thanks for your help

You might want to consider the built-in Config Archive feature instead of kron. With Config Archive, you can periodically take backups of your config (even to a network server), and you can adjust the filenames using either date or hostname (or both). Check out the documentation at http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/ios/12_3t/12_3t7/feature/guide/gtrollbk.html#wp1100253 for more details.
In addition to Config Archive, you also have the option of going with the Embedded Event Manager. EEM also has a cron feature which will allow you to run CLI commands periodically. Depending on your IOS version, it may be possible to do what you want using a simple EEM applet, or you might have to use a Tcl script policy. More on EEM can be found at http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/ios/netmgmt/configuration/guide/nm_eem_overview_ps10592_TSD_Products_Configuration_Guide_Chapter.html .
All that said, most TFTP servers have a security requirement that a file must exist on the server before one can write to it. Therefore, if you try and create new files (i.e. a new file each day), the TFTP server may reject the WRITE REQUEST unless a file with that name already exists. In light of that, you may need to use something like SCP or FTP instead.

How to Save Command Output to Flash on ASA 8.4

Hi,
I nice easy one for you guys.
How do you save the command output from the CLI to a file on flash?
With IOS, I would normally use a pipe command to redirect to tftp, but the ASA doesn't support this as far as I can tell. As a work around I was thinking I could save the output to flash and then tftp that file off the ASA.
Thanks,
Paul

Hi Jennifer,
Thanks for your help. I do use this feature at the moment, but I find every break in the output (where you need to hit space to see more) gets recorded which leaves the file quite messy. I usually have to edit the file afterwards so it reads clearly.
I wondered if there is a way for the asa to write the output directly?
Thanks,
Paul
