fcFxPortPhysAdminStatus [fcFxPortPhysTable]
Syntax
Access Read-write
Status Mandatory
Description The desired state of the FxPort. A management station may place the FxPort in a desired state by
setting this object accordingly. The 3 (testing) state indicates that no operational frames can be
passed. When a Fabric Element initializes, all FxPorts start with fcFxPortPhysAdminStatus in the 2
(offline) 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 1
(online) or 3 (testing) states, or remains in the 2 (offline) state.
fcFxPortPhysOperStatus [fcFxPortPhysTable]
Syntax
Note: Other values may be used to indicate diagnostic for failed test.
Access Read-only
Status Mandatory
Description The current operational status of the FxPort. The 3 (testing) indicates that no operational frames can
be passed. If fcFxPortPhysAdminStatus is 2 (offline) then fcFxPortPhysOperStatus should be 2
(offline). If fcFxPortPhysAdminStatus is changed to 1 (online) then fcFxPortPhysOperStatus
should change to 1 (online) if the FxPort is ready to accept Fabric Login request from the attached
NxPort; it should proceed and remain in the 4 (link-failure) state if and only if there is a fault that
prevents it from going to the 1 (online) state.
