swFCPortLinkState

Module: SW-MIB

OID (symbolic): SW-MIB::swFCPortLinkState

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.1588.2.1.1.1.6.2.1.6

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: This object indicates the link state of the port. The value may be: enabled(1) - port is allowed to participate in the FC-PH protocol with its attached port (or ports if it is in a FC-AL loop); disabled(2) - the port is not allowed to participate in the FC-PH protocol with its attached port(s); loopback(3) - the port may transmit frames through an internal path to verify the health of the transmitter and receiver path.

Note that when the port's link state changes, its operational status (swFCPortOpStatus) will be affected.
