gwNumPhysicalPorts

Module: CLARENT-MIB

OID (symbolic): CLARENT-MIB::gwNumPhysicalPorts

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.2858.8.1

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-only

Description: Number of physical gateway ports present on this system (regardless of their current states)

What is gwNumPhysicalPorts?

This read-only integer reports the total number of physical ports actually present on the gateway hardware, regardless of whether any given port is currently enabled, disabled, or in a call. Admins use it as the hard capacity ceiling to compare against portInUseCount when assessing how close to full utilization the gateway is. For example, a gateway reporting 96 physical ports with portInUseCount at 90 tells the admin the system is nearing its true hardware capacity, not just a software-imposed limit.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.2858.8.1
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> CLARENT-MIB::gwNumPhysicalPorts

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.2858.8.1.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> CLARENT-MIB::gwNumPhysicalPorts.1

SNMPv3 example:

snmpget -v3 -l authPriv -u snmpv3-user -a SHA -A "AuthPassword1" -x AES -X "PrivPassword1" <target> gwNumPhysicalPorts.1
