ifLinkUpDownTrapEnable

Module: IF-MIB

OID (symbolic): IF-MIB::ifLinkUpDownTrapEnable

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1.14

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: Indicates whether linkUp/linkDown traps should be generated for this interface.

By default, this object should have the value enabled(1) for interfaces which do not operate on 'top' of any other interface (as defined in the ifStackTable), and disabled(2) otherwise.

What is ifLinkUpDownTrapEnable?

This read-write setting controls whether the agent generates linkUp and linkDown SNMP traps for this specific interface, with values enabled(1) or disabled(2). By default it is enabled on interfaces that don't sit on top of another interface in the ifStackTable, and disabled on ones that do, so admins toggle it to cut down on redundant trap noise from stacked or logical interfaces. For example, an admin sets ifLinkUpDownTrapEnable to disabled(2) on a VLAN subinterface layered over a physical port so only the physical port's flaps generate traps.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1.14
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> IF-MIB::ifLinkUpDownTrapEnable

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1.14.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> IF-MIB::ifLinkUpDownTrapEnable.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1.14.1 i <value>
