s5CmSNodeStatus

Module: S5-COMMON-STATS-MIB

OID (symbolic): S5-COMMON-STATS-MIB::s5CmSNodeStatus

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.45.1.6.5.1.1.1.5

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-only

Description: The status of the MAC address for a station. The meaning varies depending on the media type of the NMM reporting the status. The values are: other(1)......unknown or other active(2).....the station is actively sending and receiving, or participating in the ring poll inactive(3)...the station is idle

For Ethernet, active(2) means that the station has sent a frame in the last N seconds and inactive(3) means the station has not sent a frame in the last N seconds. N is specified by the s5EnNodeInactInterval object, which is defined in the 5000 Ethernet MIB. The status of other(3) is reported when the current status of the station is unknown.

For Token Ring and FDDI, the status of a station will always be reported as active(2) since it is based on being in the ring poll. When no longer in the ring poll, a station is removed from the table.

What is s5CmSNodeStatus?

This enumerated value reports whether the detected station is other(1), active(2), or inactive(3), with the meaning depending on the media type reporting it. On Ethernet, active(2) means the station sent a frame within the last N seconds (per s5EnNodeInactInterval) while inactive(3) means it hasn't, whereas on Token Ring or FDDI a station is always active(2) while in the ring poll and simply disappears from the table once it drops out. An admin watching a station flip from active(2) to inactive(3) on an Ethernet segment knows that host has stopped transmitting recently.
