Enum Constants

Name	Description
active	Device active. Indicates that both the physical and logical link are up. Packets can be transmitted and received.
activeDefer	Device in active defer state. Indicates that the logical link was active, but the physical link has suffered a failure. If it recovers within a timeout, the connection state will return to active, otherwise it will move to down.
armed	Device armed. Indicates that the physical link is up, but the logical link is not yet fully configured. Packets can be received, but non-SMPs (subnet management packets) to be sent are discarded.
down	Device down. Indicates that both the logical link and underlying physical link are down. Packets are discarded.
init	Device initializing. Indicates that the physical link is up, but the logical link is still initializing. Only subnet management and flow control link packets can be received and transmitted.
unknown	Connection state unknown. Indicates that the driver returned unexpected or no connection state information.
