Description: The data link protocol running on the logical port.

What is lportProtocol?

This sets which data-link protocol, frame relay (nfr), PPP-encapsulated frame relay per RFC 1294, SMDS, ATM, ISDN D-channel, a direct management trunk, SMDS option management, or ATM AAL1, is running on this logical port. Because this determines how the switch interprets every frame or cell arriving on this specific logical port, setting it incorrectly against what the far end actually sends would cause the switch to misparse valid traffic as garbage rather than simply failing to link up, making protocol mismatches here a particularly confusing class of fault to diagnose. A logical port carrying circuit-emulated voice traffic would be set to atmAAL1 rather than the general-purpose atm value, since AAL1 specifically handles constant-bit-rate circuit emulation differently from AAL5 data traffic.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.277.1.5.1.1.6
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> CASCADE-MIB::lportProtocol

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.277.1.5.1.1.6.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> CASCADE-MIB::lportProtocol.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.277.1.5.1.1.6.1 i <value>
