Hi,<br />
<br />
I need help finding a mib OID to enable a L2 switch port. I'm coding a web based perl tool to help manage port security. Up until now the process of enabling a port after a security violation shutdown was done via telnet. I'd like to change this portion of the tool to SNMP but need the correct OID to do it.<br />
<br />
I've tried a number of MIBs incliding;<br />
<br />
cisco-l2l3-interface-confi<wbr />g-mib.mib<br />
cisco-port-security-mib.mi<wbr />b<br />
cisco-stack-mib.mib<br />
<br />
I can gather operation and Admin status of ports from a port security or normal operational perspective but have been unable to locate specific iod to enable port.<br />
<br />
I dont think it needs to be specifically related to port security.<br />
<br />
Long and short - is there an oid of the cisco catOS command 'set port 3/4 enable'<br />
<br />
Thanks,<br />

Hi,

I need help finding a mib OID to enable a L2 switch port. I'm coding a web based perl tool to help manage port security. Up until now the process of enabling a port after a security violation shutdown was done via telnet. I'd like to change this portion of the tool to SNMP but need the correct OID to do it.

I've tried a number of MIBs incliding;

cisco-l2l3-interface-config-mib.mib
cisco-port-security-mib.mib
cisco-stack-mib.mib

I can gather operation and Admin status of ports from a port security or normal operational perspective but have been unable to locate specific iod to enable port.

SNMP oid to set switch port enable

Network Operations includes asset management, help-desk supervision, security and user policies, infrastructure administration and anything else that affects the operation of your network. Discussions will include those of best practices in platforms, configurations, performance, security and accounting.

Perl is a high-level, general-purpose, interpreted, dynamic programming languages with over 25 years of development. Perl 5 runs on over 100 platforms from portables to mainframes and is suitable for both rapid prototyping and large-scale development projects.  Perl gained widespread popularity as a Common Gateway Interface (CGI) scripting language, in part due to its regular expression and string parsing abilities. In addition to CGI, Perl is used for graphics programming, system administration, network programming, finance, bioinformatics, and other applications.

A switch is a device that filters and forwards packets of data between LAN segments. Switches operate at the data link layer or the network layer of the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) Reference Model and therefore support any packet protocol. LANs that use switches to join segments are called switched LANs or, in the case of Ethernet networks, switched Ethernet LANs. A hub is a connection point for devices in a network. Hubs are commonly used to connect segments of a LAN. A hub contains multiple ports; when a packet arrives at one port, it is copied to the other ports so that all segments of the LAN can see all packets.
