DESCRIPTION
"This data type is used to model an administratively
assigned name of the owner of a resource. This information
is taken from the NVT ASCII character set. It is suggested
that this name contain one or more of the following: ASCII
form of the manager station's transport address, management
station name (e.g., domain name), network management
personnel's name, location, or phone number. In some cases
the agent itself will be the owner of an entry. In these
cases, this string shall be set to a string starting with
'agent'."

DESCRIPTION
"A unique value, greater than zero, for each interface or

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

or when none or all interfaces need to be referenced."

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

On the first instantiation of an interface, the value of
ifAlias associated with that interface is the zero-length

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

'on top of' which other sub-layers, where each sub-layer
corresponds to a conceptual row in the ifTable. For
example, when the sub-layer with ifIndex value x runs over
the sub-layer with ifIndex value y, then this table
contains:
ifStackStatus.x.y=active
For each ifIndex value, I, which identifies an active
interface, there are always at least two instantiated rows
in this table associated with I. For one of these rows, I
is the value of ifStackHigherLayer; for the other, I is the
value of ifStackLowerLayer. (If I is not involved in
multiplexing, then these are the only two rows associated
with I.)
For example, two rows exist even for an interface which has
no others stacked on top or below it:
ifStackStatus.0.x=active
ifStackStatus.x.0=active "

SYNTAX IfStackEntry
MAX-ACCESS not-accessible

DESCRIPTION
"Information on a particular relationship between two sub-
layers, specifying that one sub-layer runs on 'top' of the
other sub-layer. Each sub-layer corresponds to a conceptual
row in the ifTable."

ifStackHigherLayer OBJECT-TYPE

MAX-ACCESS not-accessible
STATUS current
DESCRIPTION
"The value of ifIndex corresponding to the higher sub-layer
of the relationship, i.e., the sub-layer which runs on 'top'
of the sub-layer identified by the corresponding instance of
ifStackLowerLayer. If there is no higher sub-layer (below
the internetwork layer), then this object has the value 0."
::= { ifStackEntry 1 }
ifStackLowerLayer OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX InterfaceIndexOrZero
MAX-ACCESS not-accessible
STATUS current
DESCRIPTION
"The value of ifIndex corresponding to the lower sub-layer
of the relationship, i.e., the sub-layer which runs 'below'
the sub-layer identified by the corresponding instance of
ifStackHigherLayer. If there is no lower sub-layer, then
this object has the value 0."

ifStackStatus OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX RowStatus
MAX-ACCESS read-create
STATUS current
DESCRIPTION
"The status of the relationship between two sub-layers.
Changing the value of this object from 'active' to
'notInService' or 'destroy' will likely have consequences up
and down the interface stack. Thus, write access to this
object is likely to be inappropriate for some types of
interfaces, and many implementations will choose not to
support write-access for any type of interface."

ifStackLastChange OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX TimeTicks
MAX-ACCESS read-only
STATUS current
DESCRIPTION
"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."

-- Generic Receive Address Table
--
-- This group of objects is mandatory for all types of
-- interfaces which can receive packets/frames addressed to
-- more than one address.
--
-- This table replaces the ifExtnsRcvAddr table. The main
-- difference is that this table makes use of the RowStatus
-- textual convention, while ifExtnsRcvAddr did not.
ifRcvAddressTable OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX SEQUENCE OF IfRcvAddressEntry
MAX-ACCESS not-accessible
STATUS current
DESCRIPTION
"This table contains an entry for each address (broadcast,
multicast, or uni-cast) for which the system will receive
packets/frames on a particular interface, except as follows:
- for an interface operating in promiscuous mode, entries
are only required for those addresses for which the system
would receive frames were it not operating in promiscuous
mode.
- for 802.5 functional addresses, only one entry is
required, for the address which has the functional address
bit ANDed with the bit mask of all functional addresses for
which the interface will accept frames.
A system is normally able to use any unicast address which
corresponds to an entry in this table as a source address."

"This object has the value nonVolatile(3) for those entries
in the table which are valid and will not be deleted by the
next restart of the managed system. Entries having the
value volatile(2) are valid and exist, but have not been
saved, so that will not exist after the next restart of the
managed system. Entries having the value other(1) are valid
and exist but are not classified as to whether they will
continue to exist after the next restart."

DESCRIPTION
"A linkDown trap signifies that the SNMP entity, acting in
an agent role, has detected that the ifOperStatus object for
one of its communication links is about to enter the down
state from some other state (but not from the notPresent
state). This other state is indicated by the included value
of ifOperStatus."

DESCRIPTION
"A linkUp trap signifies that the SNMP entity, acting in an
agent role, has detected that the ifOperStatus object for
one of its communication links left the down state and
transitioned into some other state (but not into the
notPresent state). This other state is indicated by the
included value of ifOperStatus."
