cucsVnicEthLifDn
Module: CISCO-UNIFIED-COMPUTING-VNIC-MIB
OID (symbolic): CISCO-UNIFIED-COMPUTING-VNIC-MIB::cucsVnicEthLifDn
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.719.1.53.8.1.2
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: CucsManagedObjectDn
Access: read-only
Description: Cisco UCS vnic:EthLif:dn managed object property
What is cucsVnicEthLifDn?
This read-only CucsManagedObjectDn value is the Distinguished Name (DN) of an Ethernet Logical Interface (LIF) object — the full hierarchical path UCS Manager uses to uniquely address one specific Ethernet Logical Interface (LIF) instance in its management-information tree. Since a UCS domain can contain many Ethernet Logical Interface (LIF) instances (one row per logical interface instantiated on an adapter for a vNIC), the DN is what lets monitoring tools or scripts pin an SNMP row to the exact instance it describes rather than just the object type. For example, an admin troubleshooting the Ethernet LIF instantiated for vNIC 'eth0' on the adapter in server slot 4, carrying MAC address 00:25:B5:00:0A:1C would read this OID to get a DN like 'org-root/...dn', letting them jump straight to that instance in UCS Manager instead of searching through the whole tree.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.719.1.53.8.1.2 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> CISCO-UNIFIED-COMPUTING-VNIC-MIB::cucsVnicEthLifDn
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.719.1.53.8.1.2.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> CISCO-UNIFIED-COMPUTING-VNIC-MIB::cucsVnicEthLifDn.1
