I have scourred everywhere......
What are the differences between the interface states? I can't find anything anywhere!!
ukn/ukn/down(power-down)
disabled/down
forced/ukn
forced/down
If there are others I have missed, I'd love to be enlightened.

Are you looking at the speed/duplex/state information?
ukn/ukn/down(power-down) is when you set the Link-State to Disable
disabled/down: You've disabled the interface.
forced/ukn: You've forced the speed/duplex setting and the status of the interface is unknown. Usually caused by unsupported SFPs or if you statically set the link-state to up but the interface is unplugged.
forced/down: You've forced the speed/duplex settings and the interface is down.

Also you may want to update your code version. Those are pretty old and don't really come into play on newer releases.
