bnLogMsgBufferOperaton

Module: BN-LOG-MESSAGE-MIB

OID (symbolic): BN-LOG-MESSAGE-MIB::bnLogMsgBufferOperaton

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.45.1.6.16.1.1.1

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: The decision to store or discard generated log messages is determined by the value of this object. Specifying on(1) causes log messages to be stored in the log message buffer facility according to the parameters specified by related management objects in this module. Specifying off(2) discontinues log message accumulation. Previously collected log messages remained stored in the buffer facility until they are manually cleared or the system is reset. Resets do not clear log messages that have been saved in non-volatile storage.

Note that this object does not affect operation of the remote syslog facility, it only determines whether log messages are stored locally.

What is bnLogMsgBufferOperaton?

Controls whether the device's log message buffer facility is enabled or disabled; setting it to on(1) causes generated log messages to be stored in the buffer. When off, messages are discarded rather than saved.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.45.1.6.16.1.1.1
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> BN-LOG-MESSAGE-MIB::bnLogMsgBufferOperaton

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.45.1.6.16.1.1.1.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> BN-LOG-MESSAGE-MIB::bnLogMsgBufferOperaton.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.45.1.6.16.1.1.1.1 i <value>
