Description: Desired EFMCu port 'net' (as seen across MII) Data Rate in Kbps, to be achieved during initialization, under spectral restrictions placed on each PME via efmCuAdminProfile or

efmCuPmeAdminProfile, with the desired SNR margin specified by efmCuTargetSnrMgn. In case of PAF, this object represents a sum of individual PME data rates, modified to compensate for fragmentation and 64/65-octet encapsulation overhead (e.g., target data rate of 10 Mbps SHALL allow lossless transmission of a full-duplex 10 Mbps Ethernet frame stream with minimal inter-frame gap).

The value is limited above by 100 Mbps as this is the max burst rate across MII for EFMCu ports.

The value between 1 and 100000 indicates that the total data rate (ifSpeed) of the EFMCu port after initialization SHALL be equal to the target data rate or less, if the target data rate cannot be achieved under spectral restrictions specified by efmCuAdminProfile/efmCuPmeAdminProfile and with the desired SNR margin. In case the copper environment allows a higher total data rate to be achieved than that specified by the target, the excess capability SHALL be either converted to additional SNR margin or reclaimed by minimizing transmit power as controlled by efmCuAdaptiveSpectra.

The value of 999999 means that the target data rate is not fixed and SHALL be set to the maximum attainable rate during initialization (Best Effort), under specified spectral restrictions and with the desired SNR margin.

This object is read-write for the -O subtype EFMCu ports (2BaseTL-O/10PassTS-O) and not available for the -R subtypes.

Changing of the Target Data Rate MUST be performed when the link is Down. Attempts to change this object MUST be rejected (in case of SNMP with the error inconsistentValue), if the link is Up or Initializing.

Note that the current Data Rate of the EFMCu port is represented by the ifSpeed object of IF-MIB.

This object MUST be maintained in a persistent manner.
