apexBootMethod
Module: APEX-MIB
OID (symbolic): APEX-MIB::apexBootMethod
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.1166.1.31.1.1.1.3
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: INTEGER
Access: read-write
Description: This parameter is used to set the boot method for the APEX. Selection of noDhcpOrBootp means the APEX will not use DHCP or BOOTP - this will result in about a 10 second savings in boot time.
Once written, the change to this parameter will take immediate effect. However, in order for the change to persist through subsequent reboots or power cycles, the change must be saved via the apexSaveConfig parameter.
@Config(config=yes, reboot=no) @Save(apexSaveConfig, value=2) @File(config.ini, type='ini')
What is apexBootMethod?
Controls whether the APEX device uses DHCP or BOOTP to obtain network settings during startup, or skips both protocols to reduce boot time by approximately 10 seconds. This setting takes effect immediately when written and determines how the device acquires its IP configuration on next reboot.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.1166.1.31.1.1.1.3 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> APEX-MIB::apexBootMethod
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.1166.1.31.1.1.1.3.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> APEX-MIB::apexBootMethod.1
Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):
snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.1166.1.31.1.1.1.3.1 i <value>
