State Object/Resource Object Pairs
State Object/Resource Object Pairs
The private TCP/IP Subagent MIB objects that control or indicate the internal 
processing state of other objects are referred to as “state objects.” The objects whose 
internal processing states are indicated or controlled by state objects are referred to as 
“resource objects.”
Table 8-4 lists the resource objects and their associated state objects and state values.
State objects cannot be set to “Connected” and “Disconnected” with a Set request. 
They are internally generated states indicating the state of the connection between the 
TCP/IP Subagent process and the process represented by the resource object. 
“Disabled” and “Enabled” are SNMP Set request-generated states used when resource 
objects are being reconfigured.
The meanings of each state is as follows:
