ppmPortProtocolAltSourceEnabled

Module: PRINTER-PORT-MONITOR-MIB

OID (symbolic): PRINTER-PORT-MONITOR-MIB::ppmPortProtocolAltSourceEnabled

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.2699.1.2.1.3.1.1.7

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: TruthValue

Access: read-only

Description: The alternate transport source port mode for this protocol.

If this object is 'true', then transport source ports outside the standard range MAY be used (e.g., LPR source port standard range is defined in RFC 1179 to be '721' to '731', inclusive).

If this object is 'false', then transport source ports outside the standard range MUST NOT be used (to avoid protocol errors).

What is ppmPortProtocolAltSourceEnabled?

This TruthValue controls whether client software may use a transport source port outside the standard range defined for this port's protocol, such as LPR's 721-731 range from RFC 1179. Some network or firewall configurations require flexibility in source ports, so admins enable this to avoid protocol errors from clients that can't originate from the strict standard range; when false, clients must stay within that range. For example, enabling this on an LPR port would let a client originate its connection from source port 5000 instead of being restricted to 721-731.
