Network interface table

The interface table (mscsNetworkInterfaceTable) contains objects that provide information about the network interfaces available to the cluster as well as objects for configuring event generation based on changes in a network interface's operational state.

Table 1 describes the objects defined in mscsNetworkInterfaceTable.

Table 1. Network interface table (mscsNetworkInterfaceTable)

Row object

Description

Address

The IP address of the network interface.

Description

A description of the network interface.

Event

The index of an event in the RMON event table that is fired whenever the value of mscsNetworkInterfaceState changes. If the value of this object is 0, no event is fired.

EventStatus

RMON-style event throttle control.

EventTime

The value of sysUpTime when the event indexed by mscsNetworkInterfaceEvent was last fired.

Name

The name of the network interface.

Node

The node that owns the network interface.

State

The current state of the network interface:

unknown(1) - The agent was unable to determine the state of the interface

unavailable(2) - The node which owns the interface is down

failed(3) - The interface is unable to communicate with other interfaces

unreachable(4) - The interface cannot communicate with at least 1 other interface

up(5) - The interface can communicate with all other interfaces

removed(6) - The interface indicated removal, its cable has most likely become unplugged
