apexCteApsLevel

Module: APEX-MIB

OID (symbolic): APEX-MIB::apexCteApsLevel

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.1166.1.31.20.1.2.3

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: Analog Protection System (APS) Level setting for PRK messages. Defines what copy protection encoding will be applied to the analog composite output by the settop box. - notDefined - analog protection is not defined, settop box applications can configure APS - off - no analog protection - splitBurstOff - AGC on, split burst off - splitBurst2Line - AGC on, 2 line split burst on - splitBurst4Line - AGC on, 4 line split burst on

The APEX will set Tier Type based on apexCteApsLevel. The APEX will set tier type to subscription with right to tape when apexCteApsLevel is 'off' or 'notDefined'. The APEX will set tier type to subscription without right to tape when apexCteApsLevel is 'splitBurstOff', 'splitBurst2Line', or 'splitBurst4Line'.

Once written, the change to this parameter will only take immediate effect after apexCteApplyChange is set to 'apply'. 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) @Commit(param=apexCteApplyChange, value=2) @Save(apexSaveConfig, value=2) @File(config.ini, type='ini')

What is apexCteApsLevel?

Configures the Analog Protection System (APS) level in PRK messages, instructing set-top boxes on what Macrovision-style copy-protection encoding to apply to their analog composite output. Higher levels add stronger anti-copy signals to the analog signal.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.1166.1.31.20.1.2.3
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> APEX-MIB::apexCteApsLevel

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.1166.1.31.20.1.2.3.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> APEX-MIB::apexCteApsLevel.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.1166.1.31.20.1.2.3.1 i <value>
