Description

Looking at the output of ifconfig -v, there is more info we could be showing on status_interfaces.php.

At a minimum, on supported interfaces such as ix, it will display information about connected SFP modules.

ix0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500
    options=e400bb<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,VLAN_MTU,VLAN_HWTAGGING,JUMBO_MTU,VLAN_HWCSUM,VLAN_HWTSO,RXCSUM_IPV6,TXCSUM_IPV6>
    ether 00:XX:XX:00:00:00
    hwaddr 00:XX:XX:00:00:00
    inet6 fe80::XXXX:XXXX:XXXX:0%ix0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x5
    inet X.X.X.182 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast X.X.X.255
    nd6 options=21<PERFORMNUD,AUTO_LINKLOCAL>
    media: Ethernet autoselect (10Gbase-Twinax <full-duplex,rxpause,txpause>)
    status: active
    plugged: SFP/SFP+/SFP28 Unknown (Copper pigtail)
    vendor: OEM PN: SFP-10GB-CU1M SN: XXXXXXXXXXX DATE: 2011-09-26

Wireless interfaces also show much more information, though it's debatable how useful that level of detail is in this case.

status_interfaces.php uses get_interface_info() to pull the info, which in turn pulls it from pfSense_get_interface_stats() which is provided by the pfSense module, so this change would need to be made there.

There is a small error keeping it from displaying the RX/TX signal levels from an SFP. To me, I have a fix.

Is there a reason I would not be seeing the same on my 6100 with 23.09.1? I just switched from SFP+ DACs to 10GTek SFP+ Fiber transceivers. If I run ifconfig -v I can see temperature and voltage etc but my interfaces status page does not display the information like shown above or in the pfSense documentation.

Possibly the output format in the OS changed and the code needs to be updated to follow it again. If it's showing in the ifconfig output it should be showing in the GUI. Since this issue is closed and tagged for an older version, you should open a new Redmine issue since it's a regression that happened since this was fixed the last time. The screenshot/output you have there is sufficient, but it would be more helpful if you copy/pasted the text of that ifconfig output rather than using a screenshot. The GUI screenshot of the status page is OK.

Thanks!
