Show TOP command for IOS

amvita

Level 1

In the "set" based CatOS SW, there is a command "show top <n>" that will take, by default, a 30 second sampling of the port utilization of all ports on the switch. I am wondering if there is a similiar command in the IOS based switch SW.

Anthony,

Are you referring to a 6500 platform? If so, the "show top" command has been added to IOS Native starting with 12.2(18)SXE.

Hope this helps,

That information is helpful. However, I am currently working on a 4506 SupIV running 12.2(25)EWA5, and that command is not an option.

Hi,

The command is available only on the 6500 switches, and is not available on the 4500 switches at this time.

HTH,

Bobby

Hi,

The Native IOS equivalent to "show top" is available on the Catalyst 6500 platform only. The feature is documented here:

http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/lan/cat6000/122sx/swcg/topn.htm

Release 12.2(18)SXE (for SUP720), 12.2(18)SXF (for SUP720, SUP32 and SUP2) and later releases support the Top N utility

Here is an example of the command in application:

6500-C#collect top 10 counters interface all

TopN collection started.

6500-C#

7w5d: %TOPN_COUNTERS-5-STARTED: TopN collection for report 1 started by

console

7w5d: %TOPN_COUNTERS-5-AVAILABLE: TopN report 1 is available <==Report

ready

6500-C#show top counters interface report
