gsEL2AddressStatus

Module: GIGAswitchEthernet-MIB

OID (symbolic): GIGAswitchEthernet-MIB::gsEL2AddressStatus

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.36.2.18.39.5.1.4.1.1.1.11

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Description: This object indicates the status of the entry:

other(1) - None of the following.

learned(2) - This entry was learned dynamically.

self(3) - The value of the corresponding instance of gsEAddressMacAddress represents one of the bridge's addresses.

mgmt(4) - This entry was added or modified by management. Entries that have been added by management and made permanent

What is gsEL2AddressStatus?

Reports how this entry came to exist: learned(2) means the switch learned it dynamically from traffic, self(3) means the address is one of the switch's own bridge addresses, and mgmt(4) means an admin added or modified it directly. Admins use this to quickly separate the switch's own housekeeping entries from genuinely learned end-station addresses.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.36.2.18.39.5.1.4.1.1.1.11
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> GIGAswitchEthernet-MIB::gsEL2AddressStatus

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.36.2.18.39.5.1.4.1.1.1.11.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> GIGAswitchEthernet-MIB::gsEL2AddressStatus.1
