a3ComSysBridgeMode

Module: A3COM-SWITCHING-SYSTEMS-BRIDGE-MIB

OID (symbolic): A3COM-SWITCHING-SYSTEMS-BRIDGE-MIB::a3ComSysBridgeMode

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.29.4.10.2.1.7

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: The operational mode of the bridge identified by this entry. Note that bridges which report notSupported(3) will not support sets of this object, and that the value notSupported(3) is not a valid value for a set operation.

What is a3ComSysBridgeMode?

Configures the bridge's operational forwarding mode (EXPRESS, TRANSPARENT, or unsupported states). Network engineers adjust this to optimize traffic handling and loop prevention strategies on the bridge. Setting to expressMode(1) enables fast path bridging; transparent(2) uses standard spanning tree processing.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.29.4.10.2.1.7
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> A3COM-SWITCHING-SYSTEMS-BRIDGE-MIB::a3ComSysBridgeMode

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.29.4.10.2.1.7.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> A3COM-SWITCHING-SYSTEMS-BRIDGE-MIB::a3ComSysBridgeMode.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.29.4.10.2.1.7.1 i <value>
