Recently had a macbook pro which had a network dongle that was very hot and the network connection stopped working.

Found that the dongle was sending garbled signal down the wire and the Cisco switch shutdown the port.

# all status
show interfaces status 
# port shutdown due to line errors
show interfaces status | include err-disabled
# not connected to a live device
show interfaces status | include notconnect

Sample output (doesn't show err-disabled ports)
