fcmPortOperProtocols

Module: FC-MGMT-MIB

OID (symbolic): FC-MGMT-MIB::fcmPortOperProtocols

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.10.56.1.3.1.14

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Bits

Access: read-only

Description: A bit mask specifying the higher level protocols that are currently operational on this port. For Fx_Ports, E_Ports, and B_Ports, this object will typically have the value 'unknown'.

What is fcmPortOperProtocols?

This bitmask reports the higher-level protocols (loop, fabric, SCSI, TCP/IP, VI, FICON) actually running over this port right now; on Fx_Ports, E_Ports, and B_Ports it typically comes back as 'unknown' since those ports don't carry a single upper-layer protocol themselves. An admin compares this to fcmPortCapProtocols on an N_Port to confirm the expected protocol (e.g., SCSI) is the one actually in use.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.10.56.1.3.1.14
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> FC-MGMT-MIB::fcmPortOperProtocols

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.10.56.1.3.1.14.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> FC-MGMT-MIB::fcmPortOperProtocols.1

SNMPv3 example:

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