Description: Manages Unisphere ERX Ethernet interface configuration, media type, speed, and duplex settings.

Start monitoring vendor-neutral, standards-based MIB, any SNMPv3-capable network device (SNMP engine identity/boot/clock status) with a free 30-day trial of IPNetwork Monitor. Import MIBs, browse SNMP OIDs, create custom SNMP monitors, configure alerts, and monitor any SNMP-enabled network device from a single console.

What Is Unisphere-Data-ETHERNET-MIB?

Unisphere-Data-ETHERNET-MIB is a Unisphere Networks (later Juniper ERX) proprietary MIB managing Ethernet interface and sub-interface configuration on ERX edge routing platforms, covering physical Ethernet interface parameters and logical sub-interface layering. It exposes objects for duplex mode (administrative and operational), speed, and MTU at the physical interface level, plus a sub-interface table for VLAN-style logical interface indexing and row-status lifecycle management. In monitoring terms it supports checking whether an Ethernet interface's operational duplex mode matches its administrative setting, a common source of performance-degrading duplex mismatches, along with verifying configured speed and MTU consistency — software/hardware-facing interface health checks rather than environmental sensors. It parallels concepts from the standard IF-MIB/EtherLike-MIB but is implemented as a self-contained enterprise MIB. It is typically deployed on Unisphere/Juniper ERX edge routers in service-provider broadband aggregation networks. Network engineers evaluating or troubleshooting this functionality can download the Unisphere-Data-ETHERNET-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in Unisphere-Data-ETHERNET-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.

Monitoring Examples

An administrator would poll usdEthernetIfTable/usdEthernetIfEntry, keyed by usdEthernetIfIndex, comparing usdEthernetIfDuplexMode against usdEthernetIfOperDuplexMode to detect a duplex mismatch that could explain unexplained packet loss or collisions on a link. usdEthernetIfSpeed and usdEthernetIfMtu would be checked to confirm the interface is running at its intended line rate and frame size. The usdEthernetSubIfTable/usdEthernetSubIfEntry, indexed by usdEthernetSubIfIndex, lets an operator verify that logical sub-interfaces remain in an active usdEthernetSubIfRowStatus, catching a sub-interface that was inadvertently left in a non-operational row state.

INT usdEthernetIfDuplexMode	1.3.6.1.4.1.4874.2.2.34.1.1.1.1.2	INTEGER	read-write	The configured duplex setting for this ethernet interface. The operational value is reported in this table entry's corresponding usdEthernetIfOperDuplexMode object. NOTE, configuration dependency: Setting this object to values other than 'autoDuplex' takes effect only when the corresponding usdEthernetIfSpeed object is simultaneously set to other than 'autoNegotiate'. Otherwise (i.e. this object is set to 'autoDuplex', AND/OR corresponding usdEthernetIfSpeed object is set to 'autoNegotiate'), duplex mode is negotiated.
INT usdEthernetIfSpeed	1.3.6.1.4.1.4874.2.2.34.1.1.1.1.3	INTEGER	read-write	The configured speed setting for this ethernet interface. The operational value is reported in the corresponding Interfaces MIB ifSpeed object. NOTE, configuration dependency: Setting this object to values other than 'autoNegotiate' takes effect only when the corresponding usdEthernetIfDuplexMode object is simultaneously set to other than 'autoDuplex'. Otherwise (i.e. this object is set to 'autoNegotiate', AND/OR the corresponding usdEthernetIfDuplexMode object is set to 'autoDuplex'), speed is negotiated.

The interface identified by usdEthernetSubIfLowerIfIndex must exist, and must be a Ethernet interface. A positive value configured for usdEthernetSubIfId must not already be assigned to another subinterface layered onto the same underlying Ethernet interface.
