a3ComSysBridgePortReceiveMulticastLimit

Module: A3COM-SWITCHING-SYSTEMS-MIB

OID (symbolic): A3COM-SWITCHING-SYSTEMS-MIB::a3ComSysBridgePortReceiveMulticastLimit

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.29.4.10.3.1.4

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: This variable limits the number of multicast frames forwarded by this port over a 1 second interval. The minimum threshold limit may vary between platforms, but can be determined by multiplying this value by the a3ComSysBridgePortReceiveMulticastLimitMultiplier value. For example if this value equals 2, and the a3ComSysBridgePortReceiveMulticastLimitMultiplier equals 1000 then no more than 2000 multicast frames per second will be forwarded by this port.

The default value for this object is zero which an infinite rate.

What is a3ComSysBridgePortReceiveMulticastLimit?

Sets the maximum multicast frames per second allowed on this port (0–65535). Admins configure this to prevent multicast storms from overwhelming the bridge. Setting to 100 with a multiplier of 1000 means max 100,000 multicast frames/sec.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.29.4.10.3.1.4
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> A3COM-SWITCHING-SYSTEMS-MIB::a3ComSysBridgePortReceiveMulticastLimit

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.29.4.10.3.1.4.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> A3COM-SWITCHING-SYSTEMS-MIB::a3ComSysBridgePortReceiveMulticastLimit.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.29.4.10.3.1.4.1 i <value>
