Technical Tip: The default speed information for an interface is displayed as 'N/A' when link is down
| Description | This article describes an expected change for 1G Ethernet interface diagnostics. In earlier firmware versions, a speed value was displayed even when the interface link was down. Starting in FortiOS v7.4.10, the default speed information for an interface is displayed as 'N/A' when the link is down. |
| Scope | FortiOS v7.4.10 and later, v7.6.7 and later, v8.0.0 Beta 2 and later. |
| Solution | For example, in FortiOS v7.4.9:
After upgrade to FortiOS v7.4.11:
diagnose hardware deviceinfo nic lan2
With the new behavior, when the link is down, the interface speed is displayed as 'N/A', since the default unused speed value is no longer set to 10 Mbps. |
