What is ifEntry?
This is the conceptual row (entry) definition for the classic MIB-1 Interfaces Table (ifTable), representing one row of per-interface statistics and status such as type, speed, and operational state; the source MIB provides no DESCRIPTION text for this row object beyond its SYNTAX and table linkage. Network management tools use this row type to walk the interfaces table and retrieve per-interface counters and status for every physical or logical interface on the device. For illustration, walking this table on a router would return one row per interface, such as an Ethernet port or serial link, each with its own operational status and traffic counters.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> RFC1156-MIB::ifEntry
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> RFC1156-MIB::ifEntry.1
Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):
snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.1 s <value>
Start monitoring vendor-neutral, standards-based MIB, early TCP/IP hosts, routers, and gateways (legacy MIB-I object set) with a free 30-day trial of IPNetwork Monitor. Create custom SNMP monitor using the RFC1156-MIB::ifEntry OID value, configure state conditions and alerts, and monitor any vendor-neutral, standards-based MIB, early TCP/IP hosts, routers, and gateways (legacy MIB-I object set) from a single console.
