What is the value of MaxSpeed used by Smarts IP for a device when the value is set as "auto" in the device?



Smarts relies on the following OIDs to determine the MaxSpeed value for a device:

• OID_INTF_SPEED = ".1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.5"
• OID_INTF_HIGH_SPEED = ".1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1.15"

Smarts uses the values returned in these OIDs as the MaxSpeed value, and does not use the speed setting in the device. So, if the MaxSpeed is set to "auto" for a device, the values of the above OIDs must be checked to determine the MaxSpeed value being used for that device by Smarts IP.
