ctAliasIsActive
Module: CTRON-ALIAS-MIB
OID (symbolic): CTRON-ALIAS-MIB::ctAliasIsActive
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.52.4.1.3.7.1.1.1.1.8
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: TruthValue
Access: read-only
Description: The status of this entry.
A true(1) value indicates the alias is active.
A false(2) value indicates an entry which has been marked inactive by network management, using the ctAliasEntryStatus object in the ctAliasControlTable.
Entries which have been marked inactive may remain in the table to allow consistent mappings between network management stations until an agent needs to free resources.
What is ctAliasIsActive?
This TruthValue flag reports whether this alias entry is currently active(true) or has been marked inactive(false) via the ctAliasEntryStatus control object. An admin monitoring alias tables can use it to distinguish live, currently-valid mappings from stale ones being kept around only for consistency between management stations. For example, before alerting on a 'missing' alias entry, an admin should check ctAliasIsActive first, since a false value may just mean it was intentionally retired rather than lost.
