MIB for description of Interface?

Question

I am new to solarwinds and the SNMP MIB technology.

Is there a mib that will return what is entered as a description for an interface on a Cisco 3750?

Example:

interface FastEthernet1/0/8
description JACK #81

I would like to see "JACK #81" returned instead of FastEthernet1/0/8 in the interface description field of the Switch Port Mapper

Thank you in advance for any assistance you can provide.

cj54487,

Check out the following OIDs:

1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.2 ifDescription

1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1.1 ifxName

1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1.18 ifxAlias

Some devices don't support the ifxTable. More than likely you will want to use the ifxAlias for what you described.

--HTH

Steve
