dot3MulticastReceiveStatus

Module: RFC1284-MIB

OID (symbolic): RFC1284-MIB::dot3MulticastReceiveStatus

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.10.7.1.1.4

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: The multicast receive status for a particular interface. The value enabled(1) signifies that reception of multicast frames by the MAC sublayer is enabled on said interface. The value disabled(2) signifies that reception of multicast frames by the MAC sublayer is not enabled on said interface.

Each alteration of an instance of this object to the value enabled(1) is analogous to an invocation of the enableMulticastReceive action defined in [9] and has the effect of enabling multicast frame reception on the associated interface. Actual reception of multicast frames is only possible on an interface when the values for the associated instances of the dot3MulticastReceiveStatus and dot3MacSubLayerStatus objects are enabled(1) and enabled(1), respectively.

Each alteration of an instance of this object to the value disabled(2) is analogous to an invocation of the disableMulticastReceive action defined in [9] and has the effect of inhibiting multicast frame reception on the associated interface.

What is dot3MulticastReceiveStatus?

Controls whether the MAC sublayer of this Ethernet-like interface accepts incoming multicast frames. Multicast frames are only actually received when both this object and dot3MacSubLayerStatus are enabled(1), so an admin troubleshooting missing multicast traffic must check both objects together. For example, setting this to disabled(2) on an interface stops it from receiving any multicast frames even if the MAC sublayer itself is otherwise enabled.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.10.7.1.1.4
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> RFC1284-MIB::dot3MulticastReceiveStatus

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.10.7.1.1.4.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> RFC1284-MIB::dot3MulticastReceiveStatus.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.10.7.1.1.4.1 i <value>
