Interface Descriptor (ifDescr)

Text description of the promiscuous port.


Multi Primary VLAN Capability (cpvlanPromPortMultiPrimaryVlan)

Indicates whether all the bits set as secondary VLANs in the corresponding remapping objects (for example, cpvlanPromPortSecondaryRemap) can belong to multiple primary VLANs. If this object is set to "false(2)", the value of cpvlanVlanAssociatedPrimaryVlan for the secondary VLANs with their bits set to "1" in those remapping objects must be the same.

Note: A promiscuous port can remap a secondary VLAN to its associated primary VLAN for outgoing traffic on the fly, as defined for the Private VLAN feature.


Two Way Remap Capability (cpvlanPromPortTwoWayRemapCapable)

Indicates whether a port is capable of  remapping primary VLANs to the two-way community VLANs associated with them for the Private VLAN feature. When this object is set to "false(2)", a promiscuous port can perform only one-way remappings of secondary VLANs to their associated primary VLANs. When this object is set to "true(1)", a promiscuous port can also perform remappings of primary VLANs to the two-way community VLANs associated with them.
