This enumerated field carries the specific sub-type classification UCS Manager assigns to this FC monitoring session's destination port within its object model. For the physical FC port designated to receive the mirrored/copied traffic for an FC monitoring session, the type value is what UCS Manager's fault and configuration logic uses internally to decide which validation rules and default behaviors apply to this specific object, as opposed to other kinds of construct that share the same parent container in the fabric MIB. An admin reading this value in a dump would see one of a small, fixed set of type strings defined for this class rather than free text.
