DESCRIPTION
"By default, all ports are considered service ports. A
service port is a port that provides a networks service
such as a connection to a server, other switches, or
the like. A service port will trigger the service port
event for status changes with the alarm severity and
will trigger an alarm in the alarm table on link
failure.
In contrast, user ports trigger the user link event
with warning severity. They do not trigger an alarm
upon link failures. User ports are useful to prevent
floods of traps or entries in the alarm table. This is
especially true for ports connected to user hosts that
power up in the morning and power down again at the end
of the work day."
