Import MIBs, browse SNMP OIDs, create custom SNMP monitors, configure alerts, and monitor any SNMP-enabled network device from a single console.

What Is TPLINK-PORTCONFIG-MIB?

TPLINK-PORTCONFIG-MIB is a TP-Link proprietary MIB for configuring per-port Ethernet parameters on TP-Link managed switches. It defines a port configuration table covering administrative status, speed, duplex mode, flow control, jumbo frame support, and link aggregation group (LAG) membership. Its monitoring value is primarily configuration/software status: an administrator can confirm each port's configured speed/duplex and administrative state, and use the associated notifications subtree to be alerted to port configuration changes. It is a vendor-specific MIB that complements standard IF-MIB interface counters rather than replacing them, focusing on TP-Link's own configuration knobs. It is used in small-to-medium business networks deploying TP-Link managed or smart switches. Engineers can download the TPLINK-PORTCONFIG-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in TPLINK-PORTCONFIG-MIB. Use the built-in SNMP Monitoring Browser to explore available variables, view their current values and descriptions, and select the objects you want to monitor. You can then create SNMP monitors, configure thresholds, and receive alerts when monitored values change.

Supported Devices

TP-Link managed/smart Ethernet switch

Monitoring Examples

An administrator would poll tpPortConfigTable entries such as tpPortConfigSpeed, tpPortConfigDuplex, and tpPortConfigStatus to confirm a port is administratively enabled and running at the expected speed/duplex, catching a mismatch that could explain poor throughput. Checking tpPortConfigLAG membership verifies link aggregation is correctly grouping the intended ports, and the tplinkPortConfigNotifications group would alert on unexpected configuration changes such as flow control or jumbo frame settings being toggled.

What Can Be Monitored

port administrative status
port speed and duplex mode
flow control setting
jumbo frame enablement
link aggregation group membership

OIDs

OID symbolic	OID numeric	Type	Access	Description
tplinkPortConfigMIB	1.3.6.1.4.1.11863.6.8			This MIB module contain a collection of managed objects for port configuration.
tplinkPortConfigMIBObjects	1.3.6.1.4.1.11863.6.8.1
tpPortConfigTable	1.3.6.1.4.1.11863.6.8.1.1		not-accessible	A table that contains information about every port. You can configure the basic parameters for the ports. The parameters will affect the working mode of the port, please set the parameters appropriate to your needs.
tpPortConfigEntry	1.3.6.1.4.1.11863.6.8.1.1.1		not-accessible	A list of information for each port of the device.
STR tpPortConfigDescription	1.3.6.1.4.1.11863.6.8.1.1.1.2	DisplayString	read-write	This object indicate the description of the port.
INT tpPortConfigStatus	1.3.6.1.4.1.11863.6.8.1.1.1.3	INTEGER	read-write	This object indicates the link status of the port. When enable is selected, the port can forward the packets normall.
INT tpPortConfigSpeed	1.3.6.1.4.1.11863.6.8.1.1.1.4	INTEGER	read-write	This object indicates the speed and duplex mode of the port. The device connected to the switch should be in the same Speed and Duplex mode with the switch. When auto is selected, the Speed and Duplex mode will be determined by auto negotiation.
INT tpPortConfigDuplex	1.3.6.1.4.1.11863.6.8.1.1.1.5	INTEGER	read-write	This object indicates the speed and duplex mode of the port. The device connected to the switch should be in the same Speed and Duplex mode with the switch. When auto is selected, the Speed and Duplex mode will be determined by auto negotiation.
INT tpPortConfigFlowCtrl	1.3.6.1.4.1.11863.6.8.1.1.1.6	INTEGER	read-write	This object indicates the port status of the flow control. When Flow Control is enabled, the switch can synchronize the speed with its peer to avoid the packet loss caused by congestion.
INT tpPortConfigJumbo	1.3.6.1.4.1.11863.6.8.1.1.1.7	INTEGER	read-write	This object indicates the port status of the jumbo. The default maximum transmission unit (MTU) size is 1518 bytes. When Jumbo is enabled, the MTU size is 9216 bytes.
STR tpPortConfigLAG	1.3.6.1.4.1.11863.6.8.1.1.1.8	DisplayString	read-only	This object indicates the lag number of the port.
tplinkPortConfigNotifications	1.3.6.1.4.1.11863.6.8.2
