The MIB module to describe generic objects for network
interface sub-layers. This MIB is an updated version of
MIB-II's ifTable, and incorporates the extensions defined in
RFC 1229.

The number of network interfaces (regardless of their
current state) present on this system.

1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.5
The value of sysUpTime at the time of the last creation or
deletion of an entry in the ifTable. If the number of
entries has been unchanged since the last re-initialization
of the local network management subsystem, then this object
contains a zero value.
read-only

1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.6
The value of sysUpTime at the time of the last change of
the (whole) interface stack. A change of the interface
stack is defined to be any creation, deletion, or change in
value of any instance of ifStackStatus. If the interface
stack has been unchanged since the last re-initialization of
the local network management subsystem, then this object
contains a zero value.

An entry containing management information applicable to a
particular interface.

1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.2
A textual string containing information about the
interface. This string should include the name of the
manufacturer, the product name and the version of the
interface hardware/software.

1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.3
The type of interface. Additional values for ifType are
assigned by the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA),
through updating the syntax of the IANAifType textual
convention.

1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.4
The size of the largest packet which can be sent/received
on the interface, specified in octets. For interfaces that
are used for transmitting network datagrams, this is the
size of the largest network datagram that can be sent on the
interface.

current
1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.5
An estimate of the interface's current bandwidth in bits
per second. For interfaces which do not vary in bandwidth
or for those where no accurate estimation can be made, this
object should contain the nominal bandwidth. If the
bandwidth of the interface is greater than the maximum value
reportable by this object then this object should report its
maximum value (4,294,967,295) and ifHighSpeed must be used
to report the interace's speed. For a sub-layer which has
no concept of bandwidth, this object should be zero.
read-only
current
1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.6
The interface's address at its protocol sub-layer. For
example, for an 802.x interface, this object normally
contains a MAC address. The interface's media-specific MIB
must define the bit and byte ordering and the format of the
value of this object. For interfaces which do not have such
an address (e.g., a serial line), this object should contain
an octet string of zero length.

1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.7
The desired state of the interface. The testing(3) state
indicates that no operational packets can be passed. When a
managed system initializes, all interfaces start with
ifAdminStatus in the down(2) state. As a result of either
explicit management action or per configuration information
retained by the managed system, ifAdminStatus is then
changed to either the up(1) or testing(3) states (or remains
in the down(2) state).

The current operational state of the interface. The
testing(3) state indicates that no operational packets can
be passed. If ifAdminStatus is down(2) then ifOperStatus
should be down(2). If ifAdminStatus is changed to up(1)
then ifOperStatus should change to up(1) if the interface is
ready to transmit and receive network traffic; it should
change to dormant(5) if the interface is waiting for
external actions (such as a serial line waiting for an
incoming connection); it should remain in the down(2) state
if and only if there is a fault that prevents it from going
to the up(1) state; it should remain in the notPresent(6)
state if the interface has missing (typically, hardware)
components.

several entries in the ifTable together represent a single

same value of ifName. Note that for an agent which responds
to SNMP queries concerning an interface on some other

This object is an 'alias' name for the interface as
specified by a network manager, and provides a non-volatile
'handle' for the interface.
On the first instantiation of an interface, the value of
ifAlias associated with that interface is the zero-length
string. As and when a value is written into an instance of
ifAlias through a network management set operation, then the
agent must retain the supplied value in the ifAlias instance
associated with the same interface for as long as that
interface remains instantiated, including across all re-
initializations/reboots of the network management system,
including those which result in a change of the interface's
ifIndex value.
An example of the value which a network manager might store
in this object for a WAN interface is the (Telco's) circuit
number/identifier of the interface.
Some agents may support write-access only for interfaces
having particular values of ifType. An agent which supports
write access to this object is required to keep the value in
non-volatile storage, but it may limit the length of new
values depending on how much storage is already occupied by
the current values for other interfaces.

no such discontinuities have occurred since the last re-

The status of the relationship between two sub-layers.
Changing the value of this object from 'active' to

A control variable used to start and stop operator-

assigned to tests are defined elsewhere, in association with
specific types of interface. However, this document assigns
a value for a full-duplex loopback test, and defines the
special meanings of the subject identifier:
noTest OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { 0 0 }
When the value noTest is written to this object, no action
is taken unless a test is in progress, in which case the
test is aborted. Writing any other value to this object is
only valid when no test is currently in progress, in which
case the indicated test is initiated.

This textual convention is an extension of the
InterfaceIndex convention. The latter defines a greater
than zero value used to identify an interface or interface
sub-layer in the managed system. This extension permits the
additional value of zero. the value zero is object-specific
and must therefore be defined as part of the description of
any object which uses this syntax. Examples of the usage of
zero might include situations where interface was unknown,
or when none or all interfaces need to be referenced.
