What is a3ComPortMacAddrFmtIPX?

This enum controls the MAC address format in IPX packets: canonical or non-canonical for Token Ring. Engineers set it to match the IPX network's expected format to ensure proper bridging. Non-canonical(2) is required only on Token Ring ports.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.2.17.2.1.7
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> A3COM-PORTPATH-R6-MIB::a3ComPortMacAddrFmtIPX

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.2.17.2.1.7.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> A3COM-PORTPATH-R6-MIB::a3ComPortMacAddrFmtIPX.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.2.17.2.1.7.1 i <value>
