ppmPortName
Module: PRINTER-PORT-MONITOR-MIB
OID (symbolic): PRINTER-PORT-MONITOR-MIB::ppmPortName
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.2699.1.2.1.3.1.1.3
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: SnmpAdminString
Access: read-only
Description: A user friendly name for this port that may be used to facilitate user selection of a port on a multi-port network system, in the locale specified by 'ppmGeneralNaturalLanguage'. This port name may contain non-ASCII characters that are NOT allowed in a URI (RFC 3986) without percent-encoding.
The value of this object SHOULD be unique across all ports on this network system and SHOULD be meaningful to end users (e.g., 'PrinterXYZ-LPR-Duplex').
The value of this object SHOULD be set by an out-of-band method (e.g., local console) during installation (by the vendor or site administrator) and SHOULD NOT be subsequently modified, so that the value can be used as a static key for access to the port.
The charset of this text string object is UTF-8 (RFC 3629), in order to support names that cannot be represented in US-ASCII.
What is ppmPortName?
This object holds a human-readable name for a specific printer port, intended to help users distinguish between multiple ports on a multi-port network system. Because it is meant to be set once at installation and kept stable, admins and installer tools can rely on it as a durable label for a port even as other configuration changes. For example, a port name of 'PrinterXYZ-LPR-Duplex' would tell a user selecting a queue that this particular port sends jobs to PrinterXYZ over LPR with duplex printing.
