CDP (Enable)

An indication of whether the Cisco Discovery Protocol is currently running on this interface.

Promiscuous Mode

Checking or unchecking this option dictates the destination of the packets/frames. If this option is checked, then this interface accepts packets/frames that are addressed to this station. If this option is not selected, then packets accepted by the station are transmitted on the media.

Mode Admin

The port mode configured by the user. Modes are:

• auto - If the user configured the port as auto, then the port initialization scheme determines the mode of the port.
• F Port - In fabric port mode, an interface functions as a fabric port. This port may be connected to a peripheral device (host or disk) operating as an N port.
• FL Port - In fabric loop port mode, an interface functions as a fabric loop port. This port may be connected to one or more NL ports (including FL ports in other switches) to form a public arbitrated loop.
• E Port - In expansion port mode, an interface functions as a fabric expansion port. This port may be connected to another E port to create an Inter-Switch Link (ISL) between two switches. E ports carry frames between switches for configuration and fabric management.
• FX Port - Interfaces configured as Fx ports can operate in either F port or FL port mode. The Fx port mode is determined during interface initialization depending on the attached N port or NL port. This administrative configuration disallows interfaces to operate in any other mode—for example, preventing an interface to connect to another switch.
• SD Port - In SPAN destination port mode, an interface functions as a switched port analyzer (SPAN). The SPAN feature is specific to switches in the Cisco MDS 9000 Family. It monitors network traffic that passes though a Fibre Channel interface.
• TL Port - In translative loop port mode, an interface functions as a translative loop port. It may be connected to one or more private loop devices. TL port mode is specific to Cisco MDS 9000 family switches and have similar properties as FL ports.
• ST Port - In the SPAN tunnel port (ST port) mode, an interface functions as an entry point port in the source switch for the RSPAN Fibre Channel tunnel. The ST port mode and the remote SPAN (RSPAN) feature are specific to switches in the Cisco MDS 9000 Family. When configured in ST port mode, the interface cannot be attached to any device, and thus cannot be used for normal Fibre Channel traffic.
• TE Port - In trunking E port mode, an interface functions as a trunking expansion port. It may be connected to another TE port to create an Extended ISL (EISL) between two switches. TE ports are specific to Cisco MDS 9000 family switches.
• B Port - While E ports typically interconnect Fibre Channel switches, some SAN extender devices, such as Cisco's PA-FC-1G Fibre Channel port adapter, implement a bridge port model to connect geographically dispersed fabrics. The oper mode on this port type is "read only" and it cannot be set.
• TF Port - Trunking f_Port
• TNP Port - Trunking N Proxy port mode applicable only to N-port Virtualizer (NPV)
• NP Port - N Proxy port mode applicable only to N-port Virtualizer (NPV)

Mode Oper

The current operating mode of the port.
