Cisco Cisco SCE 8000 Service Control Engine Installation Guide

This module explains how to verify link connectivity and how to install a Cisco service control application.

The 10 GBE Link LED should be green. This indicates that an active connection exists.

At the SCE> prompt, type show interface TenGigabitEthernet 3/ baynumber /0.

This displays the port link status.

The following example shows how to display a system response.

SCE>show interface TenGigabitEthernet 3/1/0 

Actual Status: 

Link is on

Bandwidth: 10000000Kbps

Burst-size: 500000bytes

In an inline topology, you can monitor traffic through the platform counters for both the RX and TX connections. As packets 
flow through the Cisco SCE8000 for both RX and TX, the counters increase.

However, in receive-only topologies, the counters for the TX do not increment because the SCE8000 is only monitoring traffic, 
and not re-transmitting traffic.

At the SCE> prompt, type show interface TenGigabitEthernet 3/baynumber/0 counters. The TenGigabitEthernet 
counters appear.

Use the output to verify that traffic is taking place. You can see that the counters increase, together with real-time packet 
flow through the Cisco SCE 8000.

Remember, in bump-in-the-wire topology, both the RX and TX counters function as traffic monitors. For receive-only 
topologies using an external splitter, only the RX counters apply.

The following example shows how to view the counters of the first 10-Gigabit Ethernet interface.
