SNMP ifIndex MIB Object Values

In an NMS, the IF-MIB generates and assigns an interface index (ifIndex) object value that is a unique
number greater than zero to identify a physical or a logical interface. When the switch reboots or the
switch software is upgraded, the switch uses this same value for the interface. For example, if the switch
assigns a port 2 an ifIndex value of 10003, this value is the same after the switch reboots.
The switch uses one of the values in
Table 26-3 ifIndex Values
Interface Type
SVI
EtherChannel
Loopback
Tunnel
Physical (such as Gigabit Ethernet or SFP
Null
1. SVI = switch virtual interface
2. SFP = small form-factor pluggable
Note The switch might not use sequential values within a range.
