wfDnsRecursion

Module: BayNetworks-DNS-MIB

OID (symbolic): BayNetworks-DNS-MIB::wfDnsRecursion

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.18.3.5.3.19.1.8

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

What is wfDnsRecursion?

A read-write setting of enabled(1) or disabled(2), default enabled, choosing whether the resolver performs recursive DNS lookups (following referrals itself) versus sending iterative requests and letting the caller follow them.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.18.3.5.3.19.1.8
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> BayNetworks-DNS-MIB::wfDnsRecursion

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.18.3.5.3.19.1.8.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> BayNetworks-DNS-MIB::wfDnsRecursion.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.18.3.5.3.19.1.8.1 i <value>

SNMPv3 example:

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