    • Single and Multi-line---Number of channels allocated for the logical port.

  • Set Operation:

    • Subrate ports---Illegal.

      added.

  • Set Operations:

    • Subrate and Single-line---Illegal.

    • Multi-line ---This object is used by the manager to specify the starting channel when a port is added. This object and frLportAggrChCnt together define a range of channels (frLportStartC -frLportStartCh+frLportAggrChCnt-1) tobe allocated for a multi-line port.
