snmpFddiPORTPathsRequested

Module: RFC1285-MIB

OID (symbolic): RFC1285-MIB::snmpFddiPORTPathsRequested

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.10.15.4.2.1.8

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: A value that indicates the desired association(s) of the port with a station PATH. The 'Primary' Path is the default. The value of 'Secondary' is only meaningful for S (slave) or M (master) PORT PC-Types. This value effects the setting of the CF_Insert_S, and CF_Insert_L flags (refer to ANSI Section 9.4.3). If the 'Primary' PATH is present, then the Primary PATH (the default PATH) is selected. If the 'Secondary' PATH is present and the 'Primary' PATH is not present, then the CF_Insert_S flag is set. If the 'Local' PATH is sent and neither the 'Primary' or 'Secondary' PATHs are sent, then the CF_Insert_L flag is set.

The value is a sum. This value initially takes the value zero, then for each type of PATH desired, 2 raised to a power is added to the sum. The powers are according to the following table:

Path Power Primary 0 Secondary 1 Local 2 Isolated 3

What is snmpFddiPORTPathsRequested?

A read-write bitmask sum indicating which station path (Primary, Secondary, Local, Isolated) this port should try to associate with, defaulting to Primary. Admins set this to Secondary on an M or S port when the topology design calls for that port to insert onto the secondary ring instead of the default primary.
