I'm wondering why the following command is invalid ? I don't have access to the switch, only to a read-only web-interface. It's a Nexus5548, and it does have an interface named "port-channel1". The output is from an automation-framework. Is it possible port-channel is a reserved keyword ? 

[redacted]# show interface port-channel1 status
                                                        ^
% Invalid command at '^' marker.
[redacted]#

Thank you very much.

    Have you first created the the Po1 interface? The command will fail if the interface does not exist.

  • Does this 'read-only webinterface' modify or filter commands?

Reset to default

The correct syntax is

show interface port-channel interface-number [options]

So in your case

show interface port-channel 1 status

Note the space between the port-channel and the 1.
