ieee8021XPaePortCapabilities

Module: IEEE8021X-PAE-MIB

OID (symbolic): IEEE8021X-PAE-MIB::ieee8021XPaePortCapabilities

OID (numeric): 1.3.111.2.802.1.1.15.1.1.5.1.7

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Bits

Access: read-only

Description: The capabilities of this PAE port.

'suppImplemented' : A PACP EAP supplicant functions are implemented in this PAE if this bit is on.

'authImplemented' : A PACP EAP authenticator functions are implemented in this PAE if this bit is on.

'mkaImplemented' : The KaY MKA functions are implemented in this PAE if this bit is on.

'macsecImplemented' : The MACsec functions in the Controlled Port are implemented in this PAE if this bit is on.

'announcementsImplemented' : The EAPOL announcement can be sent in this PAE if this bit is on.

'listenerImplemented' : This PAE can receive EAPOL announcement if this bit is on.

'virtualPortsImplemented' : Virtual Port functions are implemented in this PAE if this bit is on.

What is ieee8021XPaePortCapabilities?

A read-only bitmap showing which 802.1X sub-features this port's hardware/firmware actually implements (supplicant, authenticator, MKA, MACsec, announcements, listener, virtual ports). Admins check this before trying to enable a feature like MACsec or virtual ports, since several other objects in this table silently force themselves to false/read-only if the matching capability bit is off here.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.111.2.802.1.1.15.1.1.5.1.7
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> IEEE8021X-PAE-MIB::ieee8021XPaePortCapabilities

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.111.2.802.1.1.15.1.1.5.1.7.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> IEEE8021X-PAE-MIB::ieee8021XPaePortCapabilities.1
