ieee8021SpanningTreeDesignatedRoot

Module: IEEE8021-SPANNING-TREE-MIB

OID (symbolic): IEEE8021-SPANNING-TREE-MIB::ieee8021SpanningTreeDesignatedRoot

OID (numeric): 1.3.111.2.802.1.1.3.1.1.1.6

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: BridgeId

Access: read-only

Description: The Bridge identifier of the root of the spanning tree, as determined by the Spanning Tree Protocol, as executed by this node. This value is used as the Root Identifier parameter in all Configuration Bridge PDUs originated by this node.

What is ieee8021SpanningTreeDesignatedRoot?

The bridge ID of the switch this bridge currently believes is the spanning-tree root; compare this value across all switches in a VLAN to confirm they agree on the same root bridge.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.111.2.802.1.1.3.1.1.1.6
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> IEEE8021-SPANNING-TREE-MIB::ieee8021SpanningTreeDesignatedRoot

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.111.2.802.1.1.3.1.1.1.6.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> IEEE8021-SPANNING-TREE-MIB::ieee8021SpanningTreeDesignatedRoot.1
