ieee8021BridgeBaseBridgeAddress

Module: IEEE8021-BRIDGE-MIB

OID (symbolic): IEEE8021-BRIDGE-MIB::ieee8021BridgeBaseBridgeAddress

OID (numeric): 1.3.111.2.802.1.1.2.1.1.1.1.2

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: MacAddress

Access: read-create

Description: The MAC address used by this Bridge when it is referred to in a unique fashion. It is recommended that this be the numerically smallest MAC address of all ports that belong to this Bridge. However, it is only required to be unique. When concatenated with ieee8021SpanningTreePriority, a unique BridgeIdentifier is formed, which is used in the Spanning Tree Protocol.

This object may not be modified while the corresponding instance of ieee8021BridgeBaseRowStatus is active(1).

The value of this object MUST be retained across reinitializations of the management system.

What is ieee8021BridgeBaseBridgeAddress?

The MAC address used to uniquely identify this Bridge component, typically the numerically smallest address among its ports; it forms part of the Bridge Identifier used by the Spanning Tree Protocol and can't be changed while the row is active.
