Module: CISCO-NS-MIB

OID (symbolic): CISCO-NS-MIB::fcNameServerHardAddress

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.293.1.1.4.1.11

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: FcAddressId

Access: read-only

Description: The format of this object is identical to the format of Hard Address defined in the Discover Address (ADISC) Extended Link Service (FC-PH-2). Hard Address is the 24-bit NL_Port identifier which consists of - the 8-bit Domain Id in the most significant byte - the 8-bit Area Id in the next most significant byte - the 8-bit AL-PA(Arbitrated Loop Physical Address) which an NL_port attempts acquire during FC-AL initialization in the least significant byte.

If the port is not an NL_Port, or if it is an NL_Port but does not have a hard address, then all bits are reported as 0s.

What is fcNameServerHardAddress?

Reports the 24-bit NL_Port Hard Address (composed of domain, area, and port bits per ADISC/FC-PH-2) assigned to this Fibre Channel port.
