ctIfConnectionType
Module: CTIF-EXT-MIB
OID (symbolic): CTIF-EXT-MIB::ctIfConnectionType
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.52.4.3.3.2.1.1.3
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: OBJECT IDENTIFIER
Access: read-only
Description: Defines the specific type of the interface connection (BRIM, etc). This is defined within ctron-oids. This differs from the nature of the interface as defined by ifType as found in MIB-II.
What is ctIfConnectionType?
This read-only object identifier names the specific Cabletron interface connection type, such as a BRIM module, drawn from the vendor's ctron-oids tree, distinct from the generic ifType value. An admin uses it to identify exactly which hardware module is installed for inventory or compatibility checks. For example, reading ctIfConnectionType and finding it points at a BRIM entry tells the admin exactly which Cabletron interface card is installed, beyond what the generic ifType would show.
