Module: HM2-LINK-BACKUP-MIB

OID (symbolic): HM2-LINK-BACKUP-MIB::hm2LinkBackupBackupInterfaceStatus

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.248.11.40.1.3.1.1.2.1.1.4

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Description: The current status of the backup interface for this link backup pair.

What is hm2LinkBackupBackupInterfaceStatus?

This read-only value reports the current forwarding state of the backup interface in a link backup pair, one of forwarding(1), blocking(2), down(3), or unknown(4). An admin checks this to confirm the backup link has correctly taken over when the primary fails, or remains in standby under normal conditions. For example, if hm2LinkBackupBackupInterfaceStatus reads forwarding(1) while the primary interface shows down(3), the admin can confirm the redundancy mechanism successfully failed over to the backup link.
