ifAdminStatus 1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.7 OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX INTEGER {
up(1),
down(2),
testing(3)
}
ACCESS read-write
STATUS mandatory
DESCRIPTION
"The desired state of the interface. The testing(3) state
indicates that no operational packets can be passed. When a
managed system initializes, all interfaces start with
ifAdminStatus in the down(2) state. As a result of either
explicit management action or per configuration information
retained by the managed system, ifAdminStatus is then
changed to either the up(1) or testing(3) states (or remains
in the down(2) state)."

SYNTAX INTEGER {

}
ACCESS read-only
STATUS mandatory
DESCRIPTION
"The current operational state of the interface. The
testing(3) state indicates that no operational packets can
be passed. If ifAdminStatus is down(2) then ifOperStatus
should be down(2). If ifAdminStatus is changed to up(1)
then ifOperStatus should change to up(1) if the interface is
ready to transmit and receive network traffic; it should
change to dormant(5) if the interface is waiting for
external actions (such as a serial line waiting for an
incoming connection); it should remain in the down(2) state
if and only if there is a fault that prevents it from going
to the up(1) state; it should remain in the notPresent(6)
state if the interface has missing (typically, hardware)
components."
