Juniper monitor interface
monitor interface
Syntax
Release Information
Command introduced before JUNOS Release 7.4.
Command introduced in JUNOS Release 9.0 for EX Series switches.
Description
Display real-time statistics about interfaces, updating the statistics every second. Check for and display common interface failures, such as SONET/SDH and T3 alarms, loopbacks detected, and increases in framing errors.
Options
- none
-
Display real-time statistics for all interfaces.
- interface-name
-
(Optional) Display real-time statistics for the specified interface.
- traffic
-
(Optional) Display traffic data for all active interfaces.
- detail
-
(Optional) With traffic option only, display detailed output.
Additional Information
The output of this command shows how much each field has changed since you started the command or since you cleared the counters by using the c key. For a description of the statistical information provided in the output of this command, see the show interfaces extensive command for a particular interface type in the JUNOS Interfaces Command Reference. To control the output of the monitor interface interface-name command while it is running, use the keys listed in Table 1. The keys are not case-sensitive.
Table 1: Output Control Keys for the monitor interface interface-name Command
| Key |
Action |
|---|---|
| c |
Clears (returns to zero) the delta counters since monitor interface was started. This does not clear the accumulative counter. To clear the accumulative counter, use the clear interfaces interval command. |
| f |
Freezes the display, halting the display of updated statistics and delta counters. |
| i |
Displays information about a different interface. The command prompts you for the name of a specific interface. |
| n |
Displays information about the next interface. The monitor interface command displays the physical or logical interfaces in the same order as the show interfaces terse command. |
| q or Esc |
Quits the command and returns to the command prompt. |
| t |
Thaws the display, resuming the update of the statistics and delta counters. |
To control the output of the monitor interface traffic command while it is running, use the keys listed in Table 2. The keys are not case-sensitive.
Table 2: Output Control Keys for the monitor interface traffic Command
| Key |
Action |
|---|---|
| b |
Displays the statistics in units of bytes and bytes per second (bps). |
| c |
Clears (return to 0) the delta counters in the Current Delta column. The statistics counters are not cleared. |
| d |
Displays the Current Delta column (instead of the rate column) in bps or packets per second (pps). |
| p |
Displays the statistics in units of packets and packets per second (pps). |
| q or Esc |
Quits the command and returns to the command prompt. |
| r |
Displays the rate column (instead of the Current Delta column) in bps and pps. |

| Field Name |
Field Description |
Level of Output |
|---|---|---|
| router1 |
Hostname of the router. |
All levels |
| Seconds |
How long the monitor interface command has been running or how long since you last cleared the counters. |
All levels |
| Time |
Current time (UTC). |
All levels |
| Delay x/y/z |
Time difference between when the statistics were displayed and the actual clock time.
|
All levels |
| Interface |
Short description of the interface, including its name, status, and encapsulation. |
All levels |
| Link |
State of the link: Up, Down, or Test. |
All levels |
| Current delta |
Cumulative number for the counter in question since the time shown in the Seconds field, which is the time since you started the command or last cleared the counters. |
All levels |
| Statistics |
For an explanation of the interface statistics, see the description of the show interfaces extensive command for a particular interface type in the JUNOS Interfaces Command Reference. |
All levels |
| Description |
With the traffic option, displays the interface description configured at the [edit interfaces interface-name] hierarchy level. |
