secyIfProtectFramesEnable

Module: IEEE8021-SECY-MIB

OID (symbolic): IEEE8021-SECY-MIB::secyIfProtectFramesEnable

OID (numeric): 1.0.8802.1.1.3.1.1.1.1.5

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: TruthValue

Access: read-write

Description: Enables or disables protection of transmitted frames.

What is secyIfProtectFramesEnable?

This object enables or disables MACsec protection (encryption and authentication) on transmitted frames at a network interface. Operators set this to enforce security policies: when enabled, all outgoing frames are encrypted and tagged with authentication codes; when disabled, frames are sent in cleartext. This control allows selective activation of MACsec security per interface.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.0.8802.1.1.3.1.1.1.1.5
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> IEEE8021-SECY-MIB::secyIfProtectFramesEnable

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.0.8802.1.1.3.1.1.1.1.5.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> IEEE8021-SECY-MIB::secyIfProtectFramesEnable.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.0.8802.1.1.3.1.1.1.1.5.1 s <value>

SNMPv3 example:

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