ctDs0ifPhysAddress
Module: CT-DS0ent-MIB
OID (symbolic): CT-DS0ent-MIB::ctDs0ifPhysAddress
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.52.4497.20.2.1.6
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: PhysAddress
Access: read-only
Description: The interface's address at its protocol sub-layer. The interface's media-specific MIB must define the bit and byte ordering and format of the value contained by this object. For interfaces which do not have such an address (e.g., a serial line), this object should contain an octet string of zero length.
What is ctDs0ifPhysAddress?
This read-only PhysAddress object holds the interface's address at its protocol sub-layer, with bit and byte ordering defined by the relevant media-specific MIB, and returns a zero-length string for interfaces such as serial lines that have no such address. An admin checks this to confirm whether a given interface even has a layer-2 hardware address to work with when troubleshooting addressing issues. For example, a DS0 interface returning a zero-length value here confirms to the admin that MAC-based troubleshooting techniques don't apply to that particular serial-style channel.
