FortiSwitch Optical Power

I'm looking to see if there is a way on a FortiSwitch (version 7.4.2) to view the current rx and tx optical power level for the SFP module.

We are having some unusual issues and am trying to figure out if I have a bad fiber or possible bad optic

Hello @cbrizzell ,

 

You can use this command for sfp optical power information. 

 

get switch modules status <PORT_NAME>
