a3RipIpNetPolMetric

Module: A3COM-RIP-IPEXTNS-R4-MIB

OID (symbolic): A3COM-RIP-IPEXTNS-R4-MIB::a3RipIpNetPolMetric

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.2.8.5.1.3

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: The metric that is to be used in RIP reports of this route. If a metric value in the range of 1 to 15 is specified, the route, together with the specified metric, is reported. If the metric 0 is specified, the routing table metric is used.

What is a3RipIpNetPolMetric?

This integer (0-15) sets the routing cost assigned to a filtered network in RIP reports. A metric of 5 makes the route less preferred than one with metric 2; setting it to 0 uses the actual routing table metric. Engineers adjust this to influence traffic paths and network load balancing.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.2.8.5.1.3
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> A3COM-RIP-IPEXTNS-R4-MIB::a3RipIpNetPolMetric

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.2.8.5.1.3.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> A3COM-RIP-IPEXTNS-R4-MIB::a3RipIpNetPolMetric.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.2.8.5.1.3.1 i <value>
