nbsOpticPortFiberMode

Module: NBS-OPTIC-MIB

OID (symbolic): NBS-OPTIC-MIB::nbsOpticPortFiberMode

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.629.213.1.2.1.51

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-only

Description: This object indicates the modality of the fiber. It is an alias of nbsCmmcPortMedium

What is nbsOpticPortFiberMode?

This read-only INTEGER indicates the fiber modality of an optic port, aliased to nbsCmmcPortMedium, returning notSupported(1), reserved values, singleMode(4), or multiMode(5). Admins check this before running new fiber runs to confirm the optics and cabling type match, since single-mode and multi-mode fiber are not interoperable. For example, a port reporting singleMode(4) tells the technician to use single-mode fiber and matching SFP optics rather than multi-mode patch cable.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.629.213.1.2.1.51
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> NBS-OPTIC-MIB::nbsOpticPortFiberMode

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.629.213.1.2.1.51.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> NBS-OPTIC-MIB::nbsOpticPortFiberMode.1
