rlPhdPortsIfIndexName
Module: CISCOSB-Physicaldescription-MIB
OID (symbolic): CISCOSB-Physicaldescription-MIB::rlPhdPortsIfIndexName
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.6.1.101.53.3.1.2
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: DisplayString
Access: read-only
Description: The L2 interface number associated with this port, in string format
based on the overall hardware architecture of the device (i.e., for
monolithic devices just numbers, devices composed of modules (boards,
cards) or stackable devices composed of monolithic units in form
What is rlPhdPortsIfIndexName?
This read-only DisplayString gives a human-readable rendering of the port's interface identity, formatted according to the device's physical architecture, such as plain numbers for monolithic units or a unit-module-port style for modular and stackable devices. An admin working from the CLI or a report benefits from this readable label instead of a raw ifIndex integer, especially on stacked devices where the format encodes the physical unit and module location. For example, on a stackable switch this field might read '2-1-5', letting the admin immediately identify port 5 on module 1 of stack unit 2 without cross-referencing other tables.
