ieee8023GroupType OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX INTEGER {
other(1),
invalid(2),
flatnet(3),
segmentnet(4)
}
ACCESS read-write
STATUS mandatory
DESCRIPTION
"Type of group address.
Setting this object to the value invalid(2) invalidates the
corresponding entry in the ieee8023GroupTable. That is, it
effectively disassociates the interface identified with said
entry from the group address identified with said entry.
Whether the agent removes an invalidated entry from the table
is an implementation-specific matter. Accordingly, management
stations must be prepared to receive tabular information from
agents that corresponds to entries not currently in use.
Proper interpretation of such entries requires examination of
the relevant ieee8023GroupType object.
A value of flatnet(3) indicates a multicast address for
Synoptics autotopology flat net hello messages. A value of
segmentnet(4) indicates a multicast address for Synoptics
autotopology segment net hello messages."
