SDR classes and attributes

The following tables list all the SDR classes. You can specify these classes as targets in SDRxxxxx commands. The value in the Type column is the data type of the attribute: S=string, I=integer, F=floating point.

Class = Adapter


Attribute Name T y p e Description Comments
node_number I Relative node number
adapter_type S Adapter type as recorded in ODM (examples are en0, tr2, fi1, css0) Set by customer using SMIT.
netaddr S ip address for this interface. Set by customer using SMIT.
netmask S netmask for this interface. Set by customer using SMIT.
tok_rate S Speed of token rate, (4 or 16 mb)
enet_rate S Ethernet adapter rate (10, 100, or auto) 10Mb/s, 100Mb/s, or autosense
enet_type S bnc, dix, fiber, tp, or NA
duplex S Ethernet adapter duplex (full, half, or auto) Full duplex, half duplex, or autosense
ucode_version S The file name of the microcode that is loaded
