Is there any way to check fiber interface status?

Is there any way to check fiber interface status? Like Form Factor, Protocol, Wavelength (nm), Connector, Distance (Max), Supported Cable, Type, Input Level(Receive Power) dBm, Output Level(Transmit Power) dBm, etc. though command line in Gaia?

Ethtool was updated and picked up a bunch of new command line switches in Gaia kernel 3.10.  From expert mode try ethtool -m (interfacename).  Under kernel 2.6.18 ethtool does not have the -m option available, but try mii-diag -g (interfacename).    On Gaia 3.10 you should see something like this with ethtool -m:

        Identifier                                : 0x03 (SFP)
        Extended identifier                       : 0x04 (GBIC/SFP defined by 2-wire interface ID)

THX, our gw version is R80.10 with kernel v2.6.18. mii-diag -g (interfacename) output is as screenshot. Anyway, thanks!
