Description: The forced-shut state of the linked port.

When all the tracked ports corresponding to cptPortTrackLinkedPort, go down, cptPortTrackLinkedPort is brought down. The cptPortForceState, determines the manner in which this operation is performed.

If 'false', cptPortTrackLinkedPort is brought down operationally only and is brought up again as soon as any one of the tracked ports comes up.

If 'true', cptPortTrackLinkedPort is brought down administratively as well and the user has to manually bring the port up. i.e. the ifAdminStatus cptPortTrackLinkedPort needs to be set to 'up' by the user.

What is cptPortForceState?

Controls how a linked port is forced down when all of its tracked ports go down, determining the specific shutdown behavior applied to that linked port.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.437.1.1.2.1.1
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> CISCO-PORT-TRACK-MIB::cptPortForceState

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.437.1.1.2.1.1.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> CISCO-PORT-TRACK-MIB::cptPortForceState.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.437.1.1.2.1.1.1 s <value>
