| Description | This table allows the users to configure and monitor the
Fabric Shortest Path First (FSPF) parameters on all
interfaces on all the VSANs configured on the local switch.
An entry is automatically created in this table if there
is an entry in the fspfTable for a VSAN when an E_port
comes up on that VSAN.
An entry is automatically deleted from this table if
either :
a) the interface transitions to being a down interface which
is configured with default values and which is either
down or a non-E_port,
or
b) the fspfTable entry for the corresponding VSAN is
deleted.
Entries in this table can be created via fspfIfRowStatus
only as the means to specify non-default parameter values
for an interface at a time when that interface is either down
or is a non-E_port.
So an entry in this table exists when one or both of these
conditions holds:
- one or more configuration parameters have non-default
values for an interface which is either down or
a non-E_port and corresponding VSAN has an entry
in the fspfTable, and/or
- the interface is an E_port and it is up.
This has a number of consequences:
- an entry exists for a non-E_port or an E_port which is down
whenever that interface has non-default parameters and the
corresponding VSAN has an entry in the fspfTable;
- an entry cannot be created (via fspfIfRowStatus) for an
interface with default parameters; instead, the agent
creates/deletes an entry for an interface with default
parameters according to whether the E_port is up or
down.
- an entry can not be created via fspfIfRowStatus unless
non-default parameter values are (simultaneously)
configured for an interface which is a non-E_port or a
down interface, and the corresponding VSAN has an entry in
the fspfTable.
- deleting an entry via RowStatus when either the interface
is down and configured with non-default values or the
interface is up, is equivalent to resetting its parameters
to their default values.
If the interface is down and was configured with default-
values, then the entry would be deleted. |
