Field 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 If the port is a member of a port channel, the port channel's interface ID and

LAG. The possible values for this field are:
• Enable. Enables the Spanning Tree Protocol for this port.
• Disable. Disables the Spanning Tree Protocol for this port.
STP State Displays the port's current state Spanning Tree state. This state controls what

• Disabled
• Blocking
• Listening
• Learning
• Forwarding
• Broken
