Operation: F_Port
Physical Level Table
The Fcfportphstable contains the physical level status and
parameters for each F_Port in the fabric element.
Table A-6 Operation: F_Port Physical Level
Variable Description
fcFxPortPhysModuleIndex This object identifies the module containing the F_Port for which this entry contains information.
This number ranges from 1 to AS_glob.prod_cnfg_ptr->max_nbr_modules.
fcFxPortPhysFxPortIndex This object identifies the F_Port within the module. This number ranges from 1 to the value of
fcFeModulePortCapacity for the associated module. The value remains constant for the
identified F_Port until the module is re-initialized. This number ranges from 1 to
AS_glob.prod_cnfg_ptr->ports_per_module.
fcFxPortPhysAdminStatus The desired state of the F_Port. A management station may place the F_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 F_Port start with fcF_PortPhysAdminStatus in
the offline(2) state. As the result of either explicit management action or per configuration
information accessible by the Fabric Element, fcF_PortPhysAdminStatus 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). This MIB variable is
maintained by both the portState, ps*, defined in FPM and the PORT_BLOCKED_STATE,
pstate*, defined in PCP. The psNotInstalled shows that the port is not exist. The psIntDiags
and psExtLoop indicate the testing(3) state. The pstateUNBLOCKD and pstateBLOCKD indicate
the online(1) and offline(2) respectively.
fcFxPortPhysOperStatus The current operational status of the F_Port. The testing(3) indicates that no operational frames
can be passed. If fcF_PortPhysAdminStatus is offline(2) then fcF_PortPhysOperStatus should
be offline(2). If fcF_PortPhysAdminStatus is changed to online(1) then fcF_PortPhysOperStatus
should change to online(1) if the F_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. The values are defined as follow: online(1)
-- Login may proceed, offline(2) -- Login cannot proceed, testing(3) -- port is under test,
link-failure(4) -- failure after online/testing. See PortStateMapping document:
PortStateFuji2.0.doc.
fcFxPortPhysLastChange The value of sysUpTime at the time the F_Port entered its current operational status. A value of
zero indicates that the F_Port’s operational status has not changed since the agent last
restarted. This is SS_TIM_RD_TICKS(MILLISEC) * 10.
fcFxPortPhysRttov The Receiver_Transmitter_Timeout value of the F_Port. This is used by the receiver logic to
detect Loss of Synchronization. This value is fixed at 100ms.
