4 – MIB-II Objects

ipRouteType (1.3.6.1.2.1.4.21.1.8)

The type of route. The values direct(3) and indirect(4) refer to the notion of direct and indirect routing in the IP architecture. Setting this object to the value invalid(2) has the effect of invalidating the corresponding entry in the ipRouteTable object.

That is, it effectively disassociates the destination identified with the entry from the route identified with the entry. It is an implementation-specific matter as to whether the agent removes an invalidated entry from the table. Accordingly, management stations must be prepared to receive tabular information from agents that corre- sponds to entries not currently in use. Proper interpretation of such entries requires examination of the relevant ipRouteType object.
