ieee8021XKayMkaActive

Module: IEEE8021X-PAE-MIB

OID (symbolic): IEEE8021X-PAE-MIB::ieee8021XKayMkaActive

OID (numeric): 1.3.111.2.802.1.1.15.1.6.1.1.1

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: TruthValue

Access: read-only

Description: This object will be 'true' if there is at least one MKA active actor, transmitting MKPDUs

What is ieee8021XKayMkaActive?

True if at least one MKA participant on this port is actively transmitting periodic MKPDUs; admins use this as a quick health check that MKA is actually running on a port configured for MACsec, not just enabled but idle.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.111.2.802.1.1.15.1.6.1.1.1
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> IEEE8021X-PAE-MIB::ieee8021XKayMkaActive

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.111.2.802.1.1.15.1.6.1.1.1.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> IEEE8021X-PAE-MIB::ieee8021XKayMkaActive.1
