Enable and Disable a Port using SNMP
Fetch Dynamic MAC Entries using SNMP
In Figure , R1 has one dynamic MAC address, learned off of port TenGigabitEthernet 1/21, which a
member of the default VLAN, VLAN 1. The SNMP walk returns the values for dot1dTpFdbAddress,
dot1dTpFdbPort, and dot1dTpFdbStatus.
Each object is comprised an OID concatenated with an instance number. In the case of these objects, the
instance number is the decimal equivalent of the MAC address; derive the instance number by converting
each hex pair to its decimal equivalent. For example, the decimal equivalent of E8 is 232, and so the
instance number for MAC address 00:01:e8:06:95:ac is .0.1.232.6.149.172.
Step Task Command Syntax Command Mode
1 Create an SNMP community on the Dell Networking
system.

CONFIGURATION
2 From the Dell Networking system, identify the interface
index of the port for which you want to change the admin
status. Or, from the management system, use the
snmpwwalk command to identify the interface index.
show interface EXEC Privilege
3 Enter the command snmpset to change the admin status using either the object descriptor or the OID. Choose
integer 1 to change the admin status to Up, or 2 to change the admin status to Down.
snmpset with descriptor: snmpset -v version -c community agent-ip ifAdminStatus.ifindex i {1 | 2}
snmpset with OID: snmpset -v version -c community agent-ip .1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.7.ifindex i {1 | 2}
