Object
column OctetString
A textual string that contains interface information.
For clustered Data ONTAP, the string is in the
the following format:
<node name>:<interface name>
For Data ONTAP operating in 7-Mode, the string
contains only the interface name.
For a management port (for example, e0M or e0P), the
interface name is preceded by the text MGMT_PORT_ONLY
and a blank space after the text, in both clustered
Data ONTAP and Data ONTAP operating in 7-Mode.
Example:
The strings are in the following formats:
<node name>:MGMT_PORT_ONLY <interface name>, for clustered Data ONTAP.
MGMT_PORT_ONLY <interface name>, for Data ONTAP operating in 7-mode.
