Displaying information about installed media

Use the show media , show media slot , and show media ethernet commands to obtain information about the media devices installed per device, per slot, and per port. The results displayed from these commands provide the Type, Vendor, Part number, Version and Serial number of the SFP, SFP+, or XFP optical device installed in the port. If there is no SFP, SFP+, or XFP optical device installed in a port, the "Type" field will display "EMPTY".

On ICX 6430 and ICX 6450 devices, 1G copper ports will always be shown with the type as 1G M-C (Gig-Copper), even if the ports are not connected.

Use the show media command to obtain information about the media devices installed in a device.
