cpqFcSwitchNetworkLinkStatus

Module: CPQFCA-MIB

OID (symbolic): CPQFCA-MIB::cpqFcSwitchNetworkLinkStatus

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.232.16.4.1.1.1.11

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-only

Description: Fibre Channel Switch Network Link Status.

The following values are defined:

other(1) The agent is unable to determine the status of the switch network link.

active(2) The switch network link is active.

notActive(3) The switch network link is not active.

What is cpqFcSwitchNetworkLinkStatus?

This read-only enumerated value (other, active, notActive) reports whether the Ethernet management link of the Fibre Channel switch is up. It is distinct from the switch's Fibre Channel connectivity and tells an admin whether the network path used for SNMP polling and management itself is alive. A notActive(3) reading during a monitoring outage tells the admin the failure is on the switch's management network, not necessarily the SAN fabric.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.232.16.4.1.1.1.11
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> CPQFCA-MIB::cpqFcSwitchNetworkLinkStatus

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.232.16.4.1.1.1.11.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> CPQFCA-MIB::cpqFcSwitchNetworkLinkStatus.1
