Brocade FC Switch, distinction between Fiber & Cooper port

Hello,

I would like to know if there a way to make the distinction between a cooper & a fiber port in SRM for the brocade FC Switch?

On a Brocade switch, issuing a switchshow the distinction is done through the media value (id for a Fiber, cu for a cooper) :

Index  Slot  Port  Address  Media   Speed    State          Proto

==============================================

0          1      0     d20000     id         8G       No_Light      FC
1           1     1    -------          cu        8G      No_sync       FC

But i can't find in SRM a property that is matching the Media one

Thanks for the help,

Jean-Michel

Thank you for the information. However it is quite annoying because if i have a switch with let's say 40 Ports (30Fiber, 10 cooper) and i have 20 connected Fiber towards host SRM will report that i have in total 20 Free ports: the 10 remaining fiber + the 10 cooper...Which is somewhere false because we can't use the cooper ports.

Do you know if there is any chance to have this info collected by Vipr SRM one day?

Thanks,

JM
