SYMPTOMS
When you query the ifOperStatus OID, you may receive invalid values. The MIB defines the values 1 for up, and 2 for down. However, the query may return 5 for up and 0 for down.

The following query is an example of what you may see with the network cable plugged into the network adapter:

D:\>snmputil walk 127.0.0.1 public .1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.8 Variable = interfaces.ifTable.ifEntry.ifOperStatus.1 Value   = Integer32 1

Variable = interfaces.ifTable.ifEntry.ifOperStatus.16777219 Value   = Integer32 5

End of MIB subtree.

The following query shows what you may see with the network cable removed from the network adapter:

D:\>snmputil walk 127.0.0.1 public .1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.8 Variable = interfaces.ifTable.ifEntry.ifOperStatus.1 Value   = Integer32 1

Variable = interfaces.ifTable.ifEntry.ifOperStatus.16777219 Value   = Integer32 0

End of MIB subtree.
