bcamGlobalArp

Module: BCAM-MIB

OID (symbolic): BCAM-MIB::bcamGlobalArp

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.231.2.17.2.11

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-only

Description: Describes if the address resolution protocol is used. off (1) : no ARP will be used. quiet (2) : ARP will be used the first time a route is used and periodically if there exists a transport connection to the system described by this route and there was no data transfer in the last supervision interval. on (4) : ARP will be used the first time a route is used and periodically after the supervision interval.

What is bcamGlobalArp?

This read-only bitmask indicates the ARP mode: off(1)=no ARP, quiet(2)=ARP on first use then periodically, on(4)=ARP at every supervision interval. Controls address resolution frequency. Example: quiet(2) means ARP resolves addresses the first time a route is used, then checks again only if there's an active connection.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.231.2.17.2.11
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> BCAM-MIB::bcamGlobalArp

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.231.2.17.2.11.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> BCAM-MIB::bcamGlobalArp.1

SNMPv3 example:

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