ethernetChannelIfType
Module: ACMIB
OID (symbolic): ACMIB::ethernetChannelIfType
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.1751.2.18.3.12.1.2
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: INTEGER
Access: read-write
Description: Types of ethernet interface. There are two types of bridging interface(channel):bridge and routing.
What is ethernetChannelIfType?
This OID specifies whether an Ethernet channel operates in bridging mode (forwarding based on MAC addresses) or routing mode (forwarding based on IP addresses). Engineers choose based on their network design—bridging for LANs, routing for multi-site interconnects. For example, 'routing' means the card acts as an IP router, so it will strip and rewrite MAC addresses and decrement TTL values on packets crossing this interface.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.1751.2.18.3.12.1.2 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> ACMIB::ethernetChannelIfType
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.1751.2.18.3.12.1.2.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> ACMIB::ethernetChannelIfType.1
Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):
snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.1751.2.18.3.12.1.2.1 i <value>
