a3ComSysIpxInterfaceCost

Module: A3COM-SWITCHING-SYSTEMS-MIB

OID (symbolic): A3COM-SWITCHING-SYSTEMS-MIB::a3ComSysIpxInterfaceCost

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.29.4.16.2.2.1.4

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: The cost associated with the IPX address of this entry.

What is a3ComSysIpxInterfaceCost?

Stores an integer routing cost metric for this IPX interface, used in path selection. A higher cost makes the interface less preferred by IPX routers, helping engineers control traffic flow. Changing the value from 5 to 20 makes routes through this interface less attractive.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.29.4.16.2.2.1.4
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> A3COM-SWITCHING-SYSTEMS-MIB::a3ComSysIpxInterfaceCost

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.29.4.16.2.2.1.4.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> A3COM-SWITCHING-SYSTEMS-MIB::a3ComSysIpxInterfaceCost.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.29.4.16.2.2.1.4.1 i <value>

SNMPv3 example:

snmpget -v3 -l authPriv -u snmpv3-user -a SHA -A "AuthPassword1" -x AES -X "PrivPassword1" <target> a3ComSysIpxInterfaceCost.1
