IBM_EthernetPort

This provider returns instances of all Ethernet line descriptions that are available on the system when an enumerated list of instances is asked for, or looks up a resource based on the line description name provided as the key under the DeviceID property.

Table 1. IBM_EthernetPort

Property name	Property description	Value or value location
boolean AutoSense	A property that indicates whether the network port is capable of automatically determining the speed or other communications characteristics of the attached network media.
boolean FullDuplex	A property that indicates whether the port is operating in full-duplex mode.
string Caption (64)	A short textual description of the object.	Ethernet port ElementName
string CreationClassName (Key) (256)	The name of the class or the subclass that is used in the creation of an instance.	IBM_EthernetPort
string Description	A textual description of the object.	Ethernet port information for ElementName
string DeviceID (Key) (64)	An address that names the logical device.	Name
string ElementName	A user-friendly name of the object.	Name
string Name (1024)	The label by which the object is known.
string NetworkAddresses [ ] (64)	An array of strings that indicates the network addresses for the port.
string PermanentAddress (64)	The network address that is hardcoded into a port.
string StatusDescriptions[]	The various OperationalStatus array values.
string SystemCreationClassName (Key) (256)	The scoping system's CreationClassName.	IBMOS400_ComputerSystem
string SystemName (Key)(256)	The name of the scoping system.
uint16 Availability	The primary availability and status of the device.
uint16 EnabledDefault = 2	An enumerated value that indicates an administrator's default or startup configuration for the EnabledState of an element.
uint16 EnabledState = 5	An integer enumeration that indicates the enabled and disabled states of an element.
uint16 LinkTechnology	An enumeration of the types of links.	2 Ethernet
uint16 OperationalStatus[]	The current status of the element.
uint16 PortNumber	The network port number. Network ports are often numbered relative to either a logical module or a network element.
uint16 RequestedState = 12	An integer enumeration that indicates the last requested or desired state for the element.
uint32 MaxDataSize	The maximum size of the INFO (non-MAC) field that is received or transmitted.
uint64 ActiveMaximumTransmissionUnit	The active or negotiated maximum transmission unit (MTU) that can be supported.
uint64 MaxSpeed	The maximum bandwidth of the port in bits per second.
uint64 RequestedSpeed	The requested bandwidth of the port in bits per second.	Speed
uint64 Speed	The bandwidth of the port in bits per second.
uint64 SupportedMaximumTransmissionUnit	The maximum transmission unit (MTU) that can be supported.
string AggregateStandard	The Link Aggregation Standard.
string AggregatePolicy	The aggregate policy.
uint16 AggregatedPortNumber	The aggregated Ethernet port number. If this line description does not configure aggregated port, the value should be 0.
string EthernetDeviceIDList[]	The array list of aggregated Ethernet port names. If aggregated port number is 0, this list should be empty.
