This gauge reports how far through its current task the FSM running on the physical-port object that tracks a fabric-interconnect port's configuration mode and the progress of its own discovery workflow has progressed, typically as a percentage. An administrator waiting on a port discovery or configuration change to finish polls fsmProgr to distinguish a workflow that is slowly advancing from one that has stalled entirely. For example, an fsmProgr value that stops changing across repeated polls of the same Phys instance is a sign the FSM is stuck and may need administrative intervention.
