When a non-zero value is provided, the following characteristics are strongly recommended.
•
It should be persistent across agent and unit resets.
•
It should be globally unique.
•
It should be one of these FC-PH/PH3 formats:
-
IEEE (NAA=1)
-
IEEE Extended (NAA=2)
-
IEEE Registered (NAA=5)
-
IEEE Registered extended (NAA=6)
Use of the IEEE formats allows any IEEE-registered vendor to assure global uniqueness
independently. The following are some references on IEEE WWN formats:

http://standards.ieee.org/regauth/oui/tutorials/fibrecomp_id.html
If one or more WWNs are associated with the connUnit through other management methods, one
of them should be used for connUnitGlobalId.
If a WWN is not assigned specifically to the connUnit, there is some merit to using a WWN assigned
to (one of) its permanently attached FC/LAN interfaces. This cannot risk uniqueness, though.
As a counterexample, if your agent runs in a host and the host has an HBA, it is quite possible that
agent, host, and HBA are all distinct connUnits, so the host and agent cannot use the WWN of the
HBA.
If your hub has a built-in Ethernet port, it might be reasonable for the hub to use its LAN address
(prefixed with the appropriate NAA) as its connUnitId. But if the Ethernet is a replaceable PCCard,
the hub should have an independent ID.
The Brocade implementation maps the switch WWN to the top 8 octets of this variable and sets the
remaining lower 8 octets to 0.
Example:
If Brocade’s switch WWN is 10:0:0:60:69:10:02:18, then use the SNMP GET command on
connUnitGlobalId.10.0.0.60.69.10.02.18.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0 returns:
10 00 00 60 69 10 02 18 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
connUnitType 1.3.6.1.3.94.1.6.1.3
The type of this connectivity unit.
Set to 4 for Fibre Channel switches or to 14 for Brocade Access Gateway.
connUnitNumports 1.3.6.1.3.94.1.6.1.4
Number of physical ports (between 0 and the maximum number of system supported ports ) in the
connectivity unit (external).
To determine the maximum number of system supported ports , use the SNMP GET command on
swFcPortCapacity.
The Brocade switches support 0 to maximum number of system supported ports.
