ing port auto-configuration, it will be used

will be set during port auto-configuration
based on the administrative port type.

configured administrative state if the user
has not saved it in the switch configura-
tion. This state is used at the time it is set
to try to set the port operational state. This
value is not persistent and will be lost on a
switch reset.

tional state.
