ppmPortServiceNameOrURI

Module: PRINTER-PORT-MONITOR-MIB

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

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.2699.1.2.1.3.1.1.4

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: SnmpAdminString

Access: read-only

Description: The service name or URI for this port, specified in UTF-8 (RFC 3629), in the locale specified by 'ppmGeneralNaturalLanguage'. The service name is typically a queue name.

Compatibility Note: At the time of publication of this MIB, the Microsoft tools do not support LPR queue names longer than 32 characters. Network administrators SHOULD NOT assign longer LPR queue names, to prevent interworking problems.

Compatibility Note: At the time of publication of this MIB, IETF URI Generic Syntax (RFC 3986) requires that all non-ASCII characters be percent-encoded, while IETF Internationalized Resource Identifiers (RFC 3987) permits native UTF-8 resource identifiers and supplies mappings to and from standard URI. In order to support current use of IRI and possible future evolution of URI (in a successor to RFC 3986) to allow non-ASCII characters, this object has been defined with a syntax of UTF-8 (RFC 3629).

Examples of well-formed service URI for print protocols include:

- 'lpr://foo.example.com/public-printer' (where 'public- printer' is the LPR queue name portion) and - 'ipp://bar.example.com/printer/fox'

If this object is non-empty, then it SHOULD NOT conflict with a the default (e.g., IANA-registered) or explicit transport target port specified in 'ppmPortProtocolTargetPort'. In case of conflict, the URI value in 'ppmPortServiceNameOrURI' is authoritative (e.g., 'ipp://example.com:631/~smith/printer').

If this object is empty and 'ppmPortProtocolType' is 'chLPDServer(8)', the LPR queue name MUST default to 'LPR'.

What is ppmPortServiceNameOrURI?

This object specifies the service name or full URI used to reach this printer port, such as an LPR queue name or an IPP printer URI. Print clients and installers use this value directly as the connection target, and when it's a URI it takes precedence over ppmPortProtocolTargetPort if the two ever conflict. For example, this object might contain 'ipp://bar.example.com/printer/fox', telling a client to submit jobs via IPP to the 'fox' queue on host bar.example.com.
