Description: The parent interface index associated with this interface (zero if none).

What is cienaCesIpMgmtInterfaceParentInterfaceIndex?

This links a management interface to a parent interface it is logically derived from, for example a sub-interface built on top of a physical port, returning zero when there is no such parent relationship. An admin mapping out the interface hierarchy on the device, particularly for interfaces layered on top of others like a PPP link running over a physical serial port, uses this field to reconstruct that dependency chain. A value of 12 would mean this management interface's traffic ultimately rides on ifIndex 12 elsewhere in the device's interface table.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.1271.2.1.8.1.1.1.1.9
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> CIENA-CES-IP-INTERFACE-MIB::cienaCesIpMgmtInterfaceParentInterfaceIndex

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.1271.2.1.8.1.1.1.1.9.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> CIENA-CES-IP-INTERFACE-MIB::cienaCesIpMgmtInterfaceParentInterfaceIndex.1
