Description

ifIndex

This field indicates the ifIndex of the interface table entry associated with this

 

port on an adapter.

Port Type

For most ports this field is blank. Otherwise the possible values are:

 

Mirrored. Indicates that the port has been configured as a monitoring port

 

 

and is the source port in a port mirroring session. For additional

 

 

information about port monitoring and probe ports, see Mirroring on

 

 

page 256.

 

Probe. Indicates that the port has been configured as a monitoring port

 

 

and is the destination port in a port mirroring session. For additional

 

 

information about port monitoring and probe ports, see Mirroring on

 

 

page 256.

 

Port Channel. Indicates that the port has been configured as a member

 

 

of a port-channel, which is also known as a Link Aggregation Group

 

 

(LAG).

Port Channel ID
