Variable definitions

The following table describes the fields of the Neighbors tab.

Variable Value
IfIndex A unique value to identify a logical interface (VLAN). For the VLAN, the value is the ifindex of the vlan.
NetAddress The IP address corresponding to the media-dependent physical address.
PhyAddress The media-dependent physical address. The range is 0–65535. For Ethernet, this is a MAC address.
Interface Either a physical port ID or the MLT port ID. This entry is associated either with a port or with the MLT in a VLAN.
LastUpdated The value of sysUpTime at the time this entry was last updated. If this entry was updated prior to the last reinitialization of the local network management subsystem, this object contains a zero value.
Type The mapping type is as follows:
  • Dynamic type: indicates that the IP address to the physical address mapping was dynamically resolved using, for example, IPv4 ARP or the IPv6 Neighbor Discovery Protocol.
  • Static type: indicates that the mapping was statically configured.
  • Local type: indicates that the mapping is provided for the interface address.
The default is static.
State The Neighbor Unreachability Detection state for the interface when the address mapping in this entry is used. If Neighbor Unreachability Detection is not in use (for example, for IPv4), this object is always unknown. Options include the following:
  • reachable: confirmed reachability
  • stale: unconfirmed reachability
  • delay: waiting for reachability confirmation before entering the probe state
  • probe: actively probing
  • invalid: an invalidated mapping
  • unknown: state cannot be determined
  • incomplete: address resolution is being performed
