a3RipIpExtPolCtl

Module: A3COM-RIP-IPEXTNS-R4-MIB

OID (symbolic): A3COM-RIP-IPEXTNS-R4-MIB::a3RipIpExtPolCtl

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.2.8.2.1.8

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: This parameter controls which routes learned by the Exterior Gateway Protocol (EGP) are reported by RIP-IP. If this is set to all (1), all routes learned from EGP or BGP are reported, provided those routes are allowed to be reported by the Network Policy (see a3RipIpNetPolCtl). The metric that will be reported by RIP for all routes learned via EGP or BGP is specified by a3RipIpExtPolAllMet.

If this is set to none (2), none of the routes learned from EGP or BGP are reported.

If this is set to include (3), routes to destinations listed in a3RipIpExtPolTable are reported. If no routes are listed in a3RipIpExtPolTable, all routes are reported. This applies to the other policy tables as well.

If this is set to exclude (4), all routes are reported except those listed in a3RipIpExtPolTable. If no routes are listed in a3RipIpExtPolTable, no routes are reported. This applies to the other policy tables as well. The metric reported for routes learned via EGP or BGP in this case is calculated using the formula specified in a3RipIpImpMetTable (for egp or bgp).

(note, in all these cases, Network Policy must be passed before this policy is applied).

If this objects gets changed from include to exclude, or from exclude to include, all existing entries will be flushed from the table.

What is a3RipIpExtPolCtl?

This OID controls which external routes (from EGP/BGP) are re-advertised by RIP. Set to 'all' to share external routes via RIP, or 'none' to keep them private. Exporting external routes allows RIP-only neighbors to reach external destinations.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.2.8.2.1.8
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> A3COM-RIP-IPEXTNS-R4-MIB::a3RipIpExtPolCtl

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.2.8.2.1.8.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> A3COM-RIP-IPEXTNS-R4-MIB::a3RipIpExtPolCtl.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.2.8.2.1.8.1 i <value>
