Description: The polling mode of this EGP entity, either passive or active.
What is egpNeighMode?
Reports whether this EGP entity operates in active or passive polling mode toward the neighbor. Active mode means the local system initiates polls to this peer, while passive means it waits to be polled; this distinction, in the rare legacy-EGP case, matters for diagnosing why a relationship never gets fresh routing data if both ends were mistakenly configured passive. Example: finding both this local entity and its peer configured passive(2) explains why neither side is ever initiating the polls needed to actually exchange updates.
