- Field
Description
- Network Management ID
A unique ID assigned
by the system for the network management of each network interface.
- Description
A textual string
containing information about the interface.
- Type (value)
The type of interface, distinguished according to
the physical/link protocols , immediately below the network layer
in the protocol stack.
10/100Base-TX can have one of the following values:ethernet-csmacd(6), or iso88023-csmacd(7).
The following values are for other networking products.
- MTU Size
The size of the largest datagram which can be sent/received
on the interface specified in octets. This value is 1500.
- Speed in bits per second
The speed of the 10/100Base-TX card, 10 Mbit/s or
100 Mbit/s.
- Station Address
The interface address at the protocol layer immediately
below the network layer in the protocol stack. For interfaces which
do not have such an address, such as serial line, this object contains
an octet string of zero length.
- Administration Status
The desired state of the interface. This parameter
is set to up(1)
and is not configurable. It will have one of the following values:
Table A-1 Title not available (RFC 1213 MIB II)
up(1) | Ready to
pass packets |
down(2) | Not operative |
testing(3) | In test
mode |
- Operation Status
The current operational state of the interface.
This value is the same as the hardware status displayed bylanscan(1M). It will have one of the following values.
Table A-2 Title not available (RFC 1213 MIB II)
up(1) | Ready to
pass packets |
down(2) | Not operative
(card is down) |
testing(3) | In test
mode |
- Last Change
The value of SysUpTime at the time the interface
entered its current operational state. If the current state was
entered prior to the last reinitialization of the local network
management subsystem, then this object contains a zero value.
- Inbound Octets
The total number of octets received on the interface,
including framing characters.
- Inbound Unicast Packets
The number of subnetwork-unicast packets delivered
to a high-layer protocol.
- Inbound Non-Unicast Packets
The number of non-unicast (subnetwork-broadcast
or subnetwork-multicast) packets delivered to a higher-layer protocol.
- Inbound Discards
The number of inbound packets that were discarded
even though no errors had been detected, to prevent their being
delivered to a higher-layer protocol. One possible reason for discarding
such a packet could be to free up buffer space.
- Inbound Errors
The number of inbound packets that contained errors
preventing them from being deliverable to a higher-layer protocol.
- Inbound Unknown Protocols
The number of packets received via the interface
which were discarded because of an unknown or unsupported protocol.
- Outbound Octets
The total number of octets transmitted out of the
interface, including framing characters.
- Outbound Unicast Packets
The total number of packets that higher-level protocols
requested be transmitted to a subnetwork-unicast address, including
those that were discarded or not sent.
- Outbound Non-Unicast Packets
The total number of packets that higher-level protocols
requested be transmitted to a non-unicast (a subnetwork-broadcast
or subnetwork-multicast) address, including those that were discarded
or not sent.
- Outbound Discards
The number of outbound packets that were discarded
even though no errors had been detected to prevent their being transmitted.
One possible reason for discarding such a packet could be to free
up buffer space.
- Outbound Errors
The number of outbound packets that could not be
transmitted because of errors.
- Outbound Queue Length
The length of the output packet queue (in packets).
