dot3OamAdminState

Module: EFM-COMMON-MIB

OID (symbolic): EFM-COMMON-MIB::dot3OamAdminState

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.9908.1.1.1.1

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: This object is used to provision the default administrative OAM mode for this interface. This object represents the desired state of OAM for this interface.

The dot3OamAdminState always starts in the disabled(1) state until an explicity management action or configuration information retained by the system causes a transition to the enabled(2) state.

Note that the value of this object is ignored when the interface is not operating in full-duplex mode. OAM is not supported on half-duplex links.

What is dot3OamAdminState?

Enables or disables IEEE 802.3ah Ethernet OAM on this link; it always starts in disabled(1) until explicit configuration turns it on, and is ignored entirely if the interface isn't running full-duplex, since OAM doesn't work over half-duplex links.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.9908.1.1.1.1
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> EFM-COMMON-MIB::dot3OamAdminState

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.9908.1.1.1.1.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> EFM-COMMON-MIB::dot3OamAdminState.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.9908.1.1.1.1.1 i <value>

SNMPv3 example:

snmpget -v3 -l authPriv -u snmpv3-user -a SHA -A "AuthPassword1" -x AES -X "PrivPassword1" <target> dot3OamAdminState.1
