Description: The number of available VC entries on this card.

What is cardMaxVCs?

This reports the maximum number of virtual-circuit table entries this specific card's hardware and firmware can support. This is a hard capacity ceiling for provisioning: an admin planning to add more PVCs onto circuits terminating on this card must check this value against cardInUseVCs before promising a customer new circuits, since exceeding it means new VC setups will simply fail. For example, cardMaxVCs reports 8000 on an IOP card, so an admin knows they can't provision more than 8000 total PVCs across all ports on that card.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.277.1.7.2.1.33
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> CASCADE-MIB::cardMaxVCs

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.277.1.7.2.1.33.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> CASCADE-MIB::cardMaxVCs.1
