Fibre Channel Fx Port Phys Admin Status

1.3.6.1.3.42.2.1.2.3.1.3

The desired state of the FxPort. A management station may place the FxPort 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 FxPorts start with fcFxPortPhysAdminStatus in the offline(2) 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 online(1) or testing(3) states, or remains in the offline state.
