dot3MpcpRemoteMACAddress

Module: DOT3-EPON-MIB

OID (symbolic): DOT3-EPON-MIB::dot3MpcpRemoteMACAddress

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.155.1.1.1.1.6

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: MacAddress

Access: read-only

Description: An object that identifies the source_address parameter of the last MPCPDUs passed to the MAC Control. This value is updated on reception of a valid frame with 1) a destination Field equal to the reserved multicast address for MAC Control as specified in [802.3], Annex 31A; 2) the lengthOrType field value equal to the reserved Type for MAC Control as specified in [802.3], Annex 31A; 3) an MPCP subtype value equal to the subtype reserved for MPCP as specified in [802.3ah], Annex 31A. This object is applicable for an OLT and an ONU. At the OLT, it has a distinct value for each virtual interface. The value reflects the MAC address of the remote entity and therefore the OLT holds a value for each LLID, which is the MAC address of the ONU; the ONU has a single value that is the OLT MAC address.

What is dot3MpcpRemoteMACAddress?

This holds the MAC address taken from the last MPCP control frame received on this virtual link: at the OLT it's the connected ONU's MAC, and at the ONU it's the OLT's MAC. It lets an admin verify which physical device is on the other end of a given LLID without needing separate discovery tools.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.155.1.1.1.1.6
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> DOT3-EPON-MIB::dot3MpcpRemoteMACAddress

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.155.1.1.1.1.6.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> DOT3-EPON-MIB::dot3MpcpRemoteMACAddress.1

SNMPv3 example:

snmpget -v3 -l authPriv -u snmpv3-user -a SHA -A "AuthPassword1" -x AES -X "PrivPassword1" <target> dot3MpcpRemoteMACAddress.1
