a3IParpHoldTime

Module: A3COM-IPEXTNS-R5-MIB

OID (symbolic): A3COM-IPEXTNS-R5-MIB::a3IParpHoldTime

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.2.6.13.1.3

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: This object determines the amount of time, in hours, an entry can stay in the ARP table. When the specified time elapses, the entry is deleted. When one sixteenth of the time elapses, ARP considers this entry aged. When a packet is destined for an entry that has become aged, the system sends an ARP request, using a unicast address, to the destination to verify whether it is still operational.

This object corresponds to the UI parameter: -arp HoldTime.

What is a3IParpHoldTime?

This read-write integer (1 to 24 hours) specifies how long ARP cache entries remain valid before deletion. One-sixteenth of this time marks an entry as 'aged', triggering unicast verification requests. A typical value of 4 hours means aged entries are refreshed every 15 minutes to confirm host reachability.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.2.6.13.1.3
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> A3COM-IPEXTNS-R5-MIB::a3IParpHoldTime

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.2.6.13.1.3.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> A3COM-IPEXTNS-R5-MIB::a3IParpHoldTime.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.2.6.13.1.3.1 i <value>

SNMPv3 example:

snmpget -v3 -l authPriv -u snmpv3-user -a SHA -A "AuthPassword1" -x AES -X "PrivPassword1" <target> a3IParpHoldTime.1
