connUnitPortWwn
Fibre Channel World Wide Name (WWN)
of the port if applicable
WWN octet for the port, or empty string
if the port is not present
connUnitPortFCId
Assigned Fibre Channel ID of this port Fibre Channel ID of the port. All bits
set to 1 if the Fibre Channel ID is not
assigned or if the port is not present
connUnitPortSn
Serial number of the unit (for example,
for a GBIC). If this is not applicable,
returns an empty string.
Empty string
connUnitPortRevision
Port revision (for example, for a GBIC) Empty string
connUnitPortVendor
Port vendor (for example, for a GBIC) Empty string
connUnitPortSpeed
Speed of the port in KByte per second (1
KByte = 1000 Byte)
Port speed in KByte per second, or 0 if
the port is not present
connUnitPortControl

buffer, incremented for each event
Starts at 1 every time there is a table
reset or the unit’s event table reaches
its maximum index value
connUnitEventId
Internal event ID, incremented for
each event, ranging between 0 and
connUnitMaxEvents
Starts at 0 every time there is a
table reset or connUnitMaxEvents is
reached
connUnitREventTime
Real time when the event occurred, in
the following format:
DDMMYYYY HHMMSS
0 for logged events that occurred prior
to or at startup
connUnitSEventTime
sysuptime timestamp when the event
occurred
0 at startup
