quick question on SNMP
greetings,

I am in process of setting up SNMP for some E1 interfaces on an M20.

When I shut down the interface using the 'deactivate' command, there are 2 snmp events that get generated for the e1 interface. As a result I get 2 alarms in the SNMP manager for 2 different inteface index numbers.

The snmp interface index file on the Juniper also has two seperate indices for e1 interfaces as follows:

57 "e1-0/2/1" 0 0 1;
119 "e1-0/2/1" 0 1 1;

Can someone tell me what is the difference between 0 0 1 and 0 1 1 above?

Sorry if this sounds dumb but am new to SNMP stuff.

Cheers

This is because 001 is the index for the ifd aka the physical
interface and 011 is the logical interface. Since you have deactivated
the entire interface you will get two events. one for the logical and
one for the physical interface.
