Interface tab fields for multiple ports
Field Description
Index A unique value assigned to each interface. The value
ranges between 1 and 512.
Port Port Id in unit and port format.
Name Lets you enter a character string to name the port
Descr Type of switch and number of ports.
Type Media type for this interface.
Mtu Size of the largest packet, in octets, that can be sent or
received on the interface.
PhysAddress MAC address assigned to a particular interface.
AdminStatus Current administrative state of the device, which can be
one of the following:
up
down
When a managed system is initialized, all interfaces start
with AdminStatus in the up state. AdminStatus changes to
the down state (or remains in the up state) as a result of
either management action or the configuration information
available to the managed system.
OperStatus Current operational state of the interface, which can be
one of the following:
up
down
testing
If AdminStatus is up, then OperStatus should be up if the
interface is ready to transmit and receive network traffic. If
AdminStatus is down, then OperStatus should be down.
It should remain in the down state if and only if there is a
fault that prevents it from going to the up state. The testing
state indicates that no operational packets can be passed.
LastChange Value of the time the interface entered its current
operational state. If the current state was entered prior to
the last reinitialization of the local network management
subsystem, the value is zero.
LinkTrap Specifies whether linkUp/linkDown traps should be
generated for this interface
