what does "sh controllers ethernet-controller g1/0/1 phy" show me?

Hi,

I'm wondering if anyone knows how to interpret the output of: "sh controllers ethernet-controller g1/0/1 phy"? I'm trying to figure out what capabilities my server is advertising. The output below is from a

3750G-24TS.

Thankx, --Duane

This command seems to be dumping register values and without the data sheet for the PHY used in this system, you won't be able to parse this data.

If you can somehow find out what kind of PHY is being used for the GE interface and discover that it is an off-the-shelf PHY rather than a Cisco proprietary PHY then you may be able to make some progress. You could, for instance, look in the web for a data sheet for that part or maybe request one from the vendor of that part and then check out the register listing in the data sheet with the definitions for the bits in the registers and get the information you need that way.
