ipmsState
Module: IPMS-MIB
OID (symbolic): IPMS-MIB::ipmsState
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.800.2.14.1.1.1.2
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: INTEGER
Access: read-write
Description: The current state of IPMS. When read this flag indicates whether IPMS is enabled or disabled. Setting this flag to enabled causes the IPMS software to be loaded. Setting this flag to disabled causes the IPMS software to be unloaded. If this flag indicates that IPMS is disabled, then no other objects within the IPMS MIB can be accessed (because the IPMS software is not loaded on the switch). In other words, the full IPMS MIB is available only when this flag indicates that IPMS is enabled.
What is ipmsState?
This flag shows and controls whether IPMS is enabled(1) or disabled(2) on the switch: setting it to enabled loads the IPMS software, setting it to disabled unloads it. Note that while IPMS is disabled, this is the only object in the whole MIB that remains accessible; every other IPMS object disappears until this is set back to enabled.
