pgtSwitchbackMethod

Module: ACMIB

OID (symbolic): ACMIB::pgtSwitchbackMethod

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.1751.2.18.29.1.1.3

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: switchback method to switch traffic from a standby to its corresponding recovered primary interface. In auto method, PSAX automatically switches the traffic without user intervention. In manual method, standby does not switch traffic and gives control to user to do so.

What is pgtSwitchbackMethod?

This OID determines whether traffic automatically returns to the primary interface after it recovers, or stays on the standby until manually switched. An engineer configures this to control whether failback is automatic or requires explicit approval. For example, choosing 'manual' prevents automatic return to the primary, giving the engineer time to verify stability before switching back.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.1751.2.18.29.1.1.3
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> ACMIB::pgtSwitchbackMethod

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.1751.2.18.29.1.1.3.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> ACMIB::pgtSwitchbackMethod.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.1751.2.18.29.1.1.3.1 i <value>
