| Description | The module type of the port connector. This object
refers to the hardware implementation of the port.
It will be 'embedded' if the hardware equivalent to
Gigabit interface card ( GBIC ) is part of the line
card and is unremovable. It will be 'glm' if its a
gigabit link module ( GLM ). A GLM has a different form
factor than GBIC. GLM is not supported by our switch.
It will be 'gbicWithSerialID' if the GBIC serial id
can be read, else it will be 'gbicWithoutSerialID'.
It will be 'sfpWithSerialID', if the small form
factor ( SFP ) pluggable GBICs serial id can be read,
else it will be 'sfpWithoutSerialID'.
Since this is a characteristic of a physical port, this
object is not applicable for Port Channel ports, i.e.,
the value is instantiated but its value is irrelevant. |
