associated module. The value remains constant for the identified
Fx_Port until the module is re-initialized.
FcFxPortPhysAdminStatus
Type INTEGER
Provided By PCP, FPM
Access R/W
Description The desired state of the Fx_Port. A management station may place
the Fx_Port in a desired state by setting this object accordingly. The
testing(3) state indicates that no operational frames can be passed.
When a Fabric Element initializes, all Fx_Port start with
fcFxPortPhysAdminStatus in the offline(2) state.
As the result of either explicit management action or per
configuration information accessible by the Fabric Element,
fcFxPortPhysAdminStatus is then changed to either the online(1) or
testing(3) states, or remains in the offline state. The values are defined
as follow: online(1) – place port online, offline(2) – take port offline,
testing (3).
If the port cannot be set to testing because it is inactive or in a failed
state, the return value will be resource_unavailable(13).
FcFxPortPhysOperStatus
Type INTEGER
Provided By FPM, SNMP
Access R
Description The current operational status of the Fx_Port. The testing(3) status
indicates that no operational frames can be passed. If
fcFxPortPhysAdminStatus is offline(2) then fcFxPortPhysOperStatus
should be offline(2).
If fcFxPortPhysAdminStatus is changed to online(1) then
fcFxPortPhysOperStatus should change to online(1) if the Fx_Port is
ready to accept Fabric Login request from the attached NxPort; it
should proceed and remain in the link-failure(4) state if and only if
there is a fault that prevents it from going to the online(1) state.
