Administrative Port State The port state (Online, Offline,
Diagnostics, or Down) which has been set
by the user. This state may be different
from the configured administrative state if
the user has not saved it in the switch
configuration. 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.
Operational Port State The port state that is currently active. This
value may be different from the
administrative port state, for example due
to an error condition.
Configured Administrative Port State The port state (Online, Offline,
Diagnostics, or Down) which is saved in
the switch configuration, either by the user
or at the factory. This value is persistent; it
will be maintained during a switch reset,
and will be used after a reset to set the
port operational state.
