OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.9070.1.2.5.6.1.1.1.1

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: DisplayString

What is interfaceExtType?

This read-only string describes the interface type, with currently supported types including E1, T1, DTI, IP, VLAN, PPS, PPS-TOD, 10M, Ethernet, GPS, and GNSS. Admins read this to identify the physical or logical nature of a timing/sync interface, particularly relevant on a precision timing (Symmetricom-style) device. For example, this object returning "GNSS" identifies the interface as a satellite-based timing reference input.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.9070.1.2.5.6.1.1.1.1
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> SYMMINTERFACEEXT::interfaceExtType

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.9070.1.2.5.6.1.1.1.1.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> SYMMINTERFACEEXT::interfaceExtType.1

SNMPv3 example:

snmpget -v3 -l authPriv -u snmpv3-user -a SHA -A "AuthPassword1" -x AES -X "PrivPassword1" <target> interfaceExtType.1
