• VRF Name: The listed name of the local interface's VRF network, if applicable.
• Neighbor VRF Name: The listed name of the neighboring interface's VRF, if applicable.
• Neighbor Network View: The listed name of the neighboring device's network view, if the device is in a different network view.
• Network View: The network view to which the device belongs.
• Root Bridge Address: This is the MAC address ID of the root bridge in the spanning tree.
• Interface MAC and Neighbor MAC: These are MAC addresses of the listed local and neighboring interfaces.
• Neighbor Type: These are typically Switch or Switch-Router in NetMRI.
• Device Assurance:  This is an optional Cisc Anchorbookmark442bookmark442o Spanning Tree feature to help prevent neighboring switches from malfunctioning and sending invalid frames, and engaging in what is otherwise known as a forwarding loop. The associated feature is called Bridge Assurance, and it runs only in RSTP or MST-based switching networks. Search for Optional STP Features on the Cisco Web site for more informationThe probability that NetMRI has correctly identified the type of a given device.
• Ifindex: The local interface index value into the SNMP table (ifTable).
• Interface Type: Typically appears as ethernet-csmacd on switched-Ethernet networks.
• Neighbor Location: A plain-language notation of the physical location of the device associated with the neighboring interface.
• Neighbor ifindex: The index value into the SNMP table (ifTable) that the L2 neighbor is associated with.

• Interface: Lists the interface for the device. As an example, for Cisco devices you will typically see interfaces such as Do0 for dot11radio 0. This item is also a link to the Interface Viewer.
• Auth Enabled: Shows whether authentication is required in the authentication configuration group. This field will show a value of Yes or No.
• EAP Required: Indicates whether the access point requires the Extensible Authentication Protocol to provide dynamic WEP keys to wireless devices. This field will show a value of Yes or No.
• EAP Method: If enabled, possible EAP values include Open or Shared Key authentication.
• MAC Auth Required: Indicates whether the AP uses MAC Address authentication, using the wireless client's MAC address to verify with an authentication server whether the MAC is allowed on the network. This field will show a value of Yes or No.
• MAC Auth Method: If enabled, this indicates whether EAP authentication is required for MAC address authentication or if a MAC address list is being used. An access point configured for EAP authentication forces all client devices that associate to it, to perform EAP authentication.
• Default VLAN: Cisco Aironet wireless access points use three VLANs: VLAN 2, VLAN 20, and VLAN 30. One is set as the 'native' VLAN, one as the SSID administrative VLAN, and one as the SSID guest VLAN. The value shown here is the discovered listing for the default native VLAN on the radio interface.
• Auth Algorithm: The discovered SSID authentication algorithm that is configured for each settings group.
