juniEthernetSubIfNextIfIndex

Module: Juniper-ETHERNET-MIB

OID (symbolic): Juniper-ETHERNET-MIB::juniEthernetSubIfNextIfIndex

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.4874.2.2.34.1.2.1

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: JuniNextIfIndex

Access: read-only

Description: Coordinate ifIndex value allocation for entries in juniEthernetSubIfTable.

A GET of this object returns the next available ifIndex value to be used to create an entry in the associated interface table; or zero, if no valid ifIndex value is available. This object also returns a value of zero when it is the lexicographic successor of a varbind presented in an SNMP GETNEXT or GETBULK request, for which circumstance it is assumed that ifIndex allocation is unintended.

Successive GETs will typically return different values, thus avoiding collisions among cooperating management clients seeking to create table entries simultaneously.

What is juniEthernetSubIfNextIfIndex?

Returns the next available ifIndex to use when creating a new Ethernet subinterface via SNMP; returns zero if no index is available, letting multiple managers create subinterfaces without colliding.

Examples
