Item Description
Index Unique value assigned to each interface. The value ranges between
16 and 255.
Name Displays the name of this port. To assign or change a name to the port,
highlight the field and enter alphanumeric characters.
Descr Displays the port type of this interface, which may be:
• OC-3c MMF or SMF
• OC-12c MMF or SMF
The card and port numbers are also shown.
Type Displays the media type of this interface, which may be:
• rcOc3cAtmSM
• rcOc3cAtmMM
• rcOc12cAtmSM

PhysAddress MAC address assigned to a particular interface.
VendorDescr Vendor description.
AdminStatus Sets the port to either of the following states:
• up
• down
When a managed system initializes, all interfaces start with
AdminStatus in the down state. As a result of either management or
configuration action, the AdminStatus is changed to the up state (or
remains in the down state).
OperStatus Displays the current operational state of the interface, either:
• up
• down
If AdminStatus is down, then OperStatus should be down.
If AdminStatus is changed to up, then OperStatus should change to
up if the interface is ready to transmit and receive network traffic.
It should remain in the down state if and only if there is a fault that
prevents it from going to the up state.
LastChange Displays the value of sysUpTime at the time the interface entered its
current operational state. If the current state was entered prior to the
last reinitialization of the local network management subsystem, the
value is zero.
OperSpeed Displays the current operating speed of the ATM port. For OC-3c, the
operating speed is 155.52 Mb/s; for OC-12c, it is 622.08 Mb/s.
