ifPortClass
Module: HP-OV-TOPO-DB
OID (symbolic): HP-OV-TOPO-DB::ifPortClass
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.17.4.1.5.2.1.16
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: INTEGER
Access: read-only
Description: For devices for which OpenView can do 'smart' network
(i.e, bridges and hubs) submap layout, this indicates
which port this interface corresponds to on the
device, according to following:
Value Meaning
------- -------------------------------------
< 255 Corresponds to a single port (the
value '1' means 'port 1'). This type
of value is typical for bridges.
>= 255 Corresponds to a port group where the
port group number is obtained by
subracting 255 (the value '257' means
'port group 2'). This type of value
is typical for hubs.
Note: The port number OpenView uses will not
necessarily match the vendor port number, but will
start at 1 for the first non-port-group port. For
example, if a hub has 12 EtherTwist ports, identified
by the vendor as ports 1-12 and belonging to the same
port group, and also an AUI port identified by the
vendor as port 13, the AUI port will be port 1 for
purposes of OpenView.
For non-smart network connector devices, this value
should be 0 and can be ignored.What is ifPortClass?
Encodes which physical port (or port group, for hub-like devices) this interface corresponds to on its device: values under 255 mean a single port number, values of 255 or more mean a port group (subtract 255 to get the group number). Admins use it to map an SNMP interface entry back to a labeled physical port for cabling and troubleshooting, keeping in mind OpenView's port numbering may not match the vendor's silkscreen labels.
