Description: This variable informs the system administrator examining the Fast Etherchannel MIB of the capabilities of the current state of the interface's hardware to form agports.

The pagpOperGroupCapability values are adjusted automatically by the managed system to reflect configuration changes, such as port speed or duplex mode, which can affect the ability of an interface to join agports.

pagpOperGroupCapability reflects the ability to form aggregations; it does not specify whether the interface is or is not currently a member of such an aggregation.

pagpOperGroupCapability values are chosen so that no two interfaces may be aggregated unless both pagpPhysGroupCapability and pagpAdminGroupCapability permit the aggregation, as well as the current configuration of the interfaces. pagpOperGroupCapability may change dynamically, as a result of the operation of automatic configuration protocols such as PAgP, in order to prevent illegal aggregations.

When the PAgP protocol is enabled, then pagpOperGroupCapability is the value of the group capability being transmitted on this interface in PAgP packets.
