pportType

Module: CASCADE-MIB

OID (symbolic): CASCADE-MIB::pportType

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.277.1.4.2.1.6

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-only

Description: The actual type of the physical port.

What is pportType?

This reports the actual, operationally-detected type of this physical port's board, using the same enumeration as pportAdminType. Comparing this read-only value against pportAdminType is how you catch a mismatch between what was configured and what hardware the switch has actually detected in that slot. If pportAdminType is set to fe1-1-30 but pportType comes back as v35-6, the port was misconfigured for the card that is actually installed and needs the admin type corrected.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.277.1.4.2.1.6
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> CASCADE-MIB::pportType

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.277.1.4.2.1.6.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> CASCADE-MIB::pportType.1
