SYNTAX INTEGER {notSupported(1), mdi(2), mdix(3), autoSense(4)}
MAX-ACCESS read-write
STATUS current
DESCRIPTION
"Connecting twisted-pair ethernet ports originally required
care in choosing either straight or crossover cables. Later,
many ethernet ports added the feature that they could be
configured to accept either cable pinout. Some ports are
even smart enough to detect, or autosense, the pinout they
should use.
This Administrative object allows users to request the port
adopt a specific pinout, or to have the port autosense it.
The value notSupported(1) indicates that this port
cannot dynamically alter its pinout through this object.
The value mdi(2) is used to connect with a straight cable to
mdix ports such as those found on hubs, switches and routers.
The value mdix(3) is used to connect with a straight cable to
mdi ports such as those found on workstations.
The value autoSense(4) indicates this port should
automatically detect and change to the necessary pinout.
This object has a corresponding Operational value which
reports the actual pinout state. In certain situations, the
Operational value might differ from the Administrative."
