dot1xPaePortInitialize

Module: IEEE8021-PAE-MIB

OID (symbolic): IEEE8021-PAE-MIB::dot1xPaePortInitialize

OID (numeric): 1.0.8802.1.1.1.1.1.2.1.4

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: TruthValue

Access: read-write

Description: The initialization control for this Port. Setting this attribute TRUE causes the Port to be initialized. The attribute value reverts to FALSE once initialization has completed.

What is dot1xPaePortInitialize?

Setting this to true(1) forces the port's 802.1X state machine to reinitialize, effectively restarting the authentication process on that port; it automatically reverts to false once the reinitialization completes, so reading it back true means the reset is still in progress.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.0.8802.1.1.1.1.1.2.1.4
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> IEEE8021-PAE-MIB::dot1xPaePortInitialize

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.0.8802.1.1.1.1.1.2.1.4.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> IEEE8021-PAE-MIB::dot1xPaePortInitialize.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.0.8802.1.1.1.1.1.2.1.4.1 s <value>
