gsEPortStatus

Module: GIGAswitchEthernet-MIB

OID (symbolic): GIGAswitchEthernet-MIB::gsEPortStatus

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.36.2.18.39.3.6.1.1.1.6

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-only

Description: The status of this port. Disabled(1) means that this port has been disabled through management action. Okay(2) indicates that this port is operating properly. Warning(3) indicates that this port is encountering an abnormal condition that, however, allows it to continue to pass data. LinkFailure(5) means that this port is unable to pass data.

What is gsEPortStatus?

Reports the port's operational health: disabled(1) means an admin turned it off, okay(2) is normal operation, warning(3) flags an abnormal-but-still-passing-data condition, and linkFailure(5) means it can't pass data at all. Admins poll this to distinguish an intentionally-disabled port from one that's actually failed.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.36.2.18.39.3.6.1.1.1.6
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> GIGAswitchEthernet-MIB::gsEPortStatus

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.36.2.18.39.3.6.1.1.1.6.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> GIGAswitchEthernet-MIB::gsEPortStatus.1

SNMPv3 example:

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