Generic Receive Address Table

Not supported by the unit.

IP Group

The Internet Protocol Group objects are supported by the unit for all data paths

that are currently configured to carry IP data to/from the unit. All of the objects in

the IP Group, except for the IP Address Translation table, are fully supported.

The following table provides clarification for objects contained in the IP group

when it is not clear how the object definition in MIB II is supported by the unit.

Table C-6. IP Group Objects (1 of 2)

Object Description Setting/Contents
ipForwarding

(ip1)

Specifies whether the unit
is acting as an IP gateway
for forwarding of datagram
received by, but not
addressed to, the unit.
Supports only the following value:
forwarding(1) – The unit is acting as
a gateway.
ipAddrTable

(ip20)

The address table. Supported.
ipAdEntAddr

(ipAddrEntry 1)

An IP address supported by
the unit which serves as an
index to the address table.
Indexes for tables must be unique.
Therefore, only one ifIndex can be
displayed for each IP address supported
by the device. If the same IP address is
configured for multiple interfaces, or for
default IP addresses, the ipAddrTable
will not display all of the interfaces that
support a particular IP address.
ipAdEntIfIndex

(ipAddrEntry 2)

If this object has a greater
value than the ifNumber,
then it refers to a
proprietary interface not
currently implemented by
the MIB II Interface Group.
None
ipRouteTable

(ip21)

Supported as read/write.
However, use caution when
adding or modifying routes.
If it is absolutely necessary
to add a route, the route
should only be added to the
connected device (device
closest to the destination).
Internal routing will continue
the route to the other
devices.
To delete a route, set object to invalid.
To modify a route, change fields in the
desired entry of the routing table
(indexed by ipRouteDest).
To add a route, specify values for a table
entry for which the index (ipRouteDest)
does not already exist. The following
objects

must

be specified:
ipRouteDest – Serves as an index to
the routing table. Only one route per
destination can appear in the table. To
ensure that no duplicate destinations
appear in the routing table, the
ipRouteDest object will be treated as
described in the IP Forwarding Table
MIB (RFC 1354).
