ipMcastBoundaryAddress

Module: IPMCAST-MIB

OID (symbolic): IPMCAST-MIB::ipMcastBoundaryAddress

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.168.1.7.1.3

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: InetAddress

Access: not-accessible

Description: The group address which, when combined with the corresponding value of ipMcastBoundaryAddressPrefixLength, identifies the group range for which the scoped boundary exists. Scoped IPv4 multicast address ranges must be prefixed by 239.0.0.0/8. Scoped IPv6 multicast address ranges are FF0x::/16, where x is a valid RFC 4291 multicast scope.

An IPv6 address prefixed by FF1x::/16 is a non-permanently- assigned address. An IPv6 address prefixed by FF3x::/16 is a unicast-prefix-based multicast addresses. A zone boundary for FF0x::/16 implies an identical boundary for these other prefixes. No separate FF1x::/16 or FF3x::/16 entries exist in this table.

This address object is only significant up to

ipMcastBoundaryAddressPrefixLength bits. The remaining address bits are set to zero. This is especially important for this index field, which is part of the index of this entry. Any non-zero bits would signify an entirely different entry.
