Description: The administratively desired type of this port.

What is fcmPortAdminType?

This is the administratively configured Fibre Channel port type (per the IANA port-type registry) for this port, and it's writable so an admin can set the intended role, such as forcing a port to operate as an E_Port for an inter-switch link. Comparing it against fcmPortOperType tells you whether the port actually came up in the role you configured.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.10.56.1.3.1.4
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> FC-MGMT-MIB::fcmPortAdminType

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.10.56.1.3.1.4.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> FC-MGMT-MIB::fcmPortAdminType.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.10.56.1.3.1.4.1 s <value>
