Rename interface: to what port is it connected to?

Hello,

im very new to mikrotik. I configured a CRS106-1C-5S via winbox. I renamed the interfaces. How can I see which interface is connected to which port?

As you can see, I renamed several ports, but I can’t see, how the port sfp2 is named.

Best Regards

/interface print detail

to list all interfaces details or

/interface print where default-name=sfp2

to find default name of one interface

hello Karlisi,

ist it also possible via winbox?

Best regards

It is in winbox using Terminal.
In GUI no, it isn’t possible. If renaming, put the default name in comment, it can help sometimes

Thanks.
@Mikrotek: this would be a nice feature :slight_smile:

Best regards

You can also use MAC address to determine - lowest will be first port, highest will be last port.

But I find it better practice to have a naming scheme - where ether1 is the port - change it to ‘ether1-WAN’ or ‘ether1-ISP’ or ‘ether1-Haus’ - or some combo of the same to keep the interface type and number handy (which has the added benefit of keeping them ordered in the list by name as well), shortened might be ‘e1-WAN’.
