Switch port information

Name, Identifier, and Syntax

Access

Description

 

 

 

snSwIfInfoSpeed

Read-write

Indicates the speed configuration for a port:

brcdIp.1.1.3.3.5.1.7

 

s10M(2) – 10Mbits per second.

Syntax: Integer

 

s100M(3) – 100Mbits per second.

 

 

The read-back hardware status are the following:

 

 

s10M(2) – 10Mbits per second.

 

 

s100M(3) – 100Mbits per second.

 

 

s1G(4) – 1Gbits per second.

 

 

The port media type (expansion or regular) and port link type

 

 

(trunk or feeder) determine whether this object can be written

 

 

and the valid values for this object.

 

 

Note that “writing” this variable writes the forced-mode

 

 

configuration, which is used when autonegotiation is disabled,

 

 

and has nothing to do with the current operation mode when

 

 

autonegotiation is enabled.

 

 

 

snSwIfInfoMediaType

Read only

Shows the media type for the port:

brcdIp.1.1.3.3.5.1.8

 

other(1) – other or unknown media.

Syntax: Integer

 

m100BaseTX(2) – 100Mbits per second copper.

 

 

m100BaseFX(3) – 100Mbits per second fiber.

 

 

m1000BaseTX(7) – 1Gbits per second copper.

snSwIfInfoConnectorType

Read only

Shows the type of connector that the port offers:

brcdIp.1.1.3.3.5.1.9

 

other(1) – Other or unknown connector

Syntax: Integer

 

copper(2) – Copper connector

 

 

fiber(3) – Fiber connector

 

 

This describes the physical connector type

 

 

 

snSwIfStpPortEnable

Read-write

Indicates if STP is enabled for the port:

brcdIp.1.1.3.3.5.1.15

 

disabled(0)

Syntax: Integer

 

enabled(1)

 

 

Refer to the document IEEE 802.1D-1990: Section 4.5.5.2,

 

 

dot1dStpPortEnable.

 

 

 

snSwIfInfoAutoNegotiate

Read-write

Applies only to Gigabit Ethernet ports.

brcdIp.1.1.3.3.5.1.19

 

Indicates if auto-negotiation mode is enabled on the port.

Syntax: Integer

 

disable(0) – The port will be placed in non-negotiation mode.

 

 

enable(1) – The port will start auto-negotiation indefinitely

 

 

 

until it succeeds.

 

 

Default: enable(1)

 

 

 

snSwIfInfoFlowControl

Read-write

Indicates if port flow control is enabled:

brcdIp.1.1.3.3.5.1.20

 

disable(0)

Syntax: Integer

 

enable(1)

 

 

Default: enabled(1)

 

 

 

snSwIfInfoGigType

Read only

Applies only to Gigabit Ethernet ports.

brcdIp.1.1.3.3.5.1.21

 

Shows the media type for the port:

Syntax: Integer

 

m1000BaseSX(0) – 1-Gbps fiber, with a short wavelength

 

 

transceiver

 

 

m1000BaseLX(1) – 1-Gbps fiber, with a long wavelength

 

 

transceiver (3km)

 

 

m1000BaseTX(5) – 1-Gbps copper (100meter).

 

 

notApplicable(255) – a non-gigabit port.

 

 

 

snSwIfFastSpanPortEnable
