cktMPForcedCaller

Module: CASCADE-MIB

OID (symbolic): CASCADE-MIB::cktMPForcedCaller

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.277.1.6.1.1.161

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: Whether this end of the circuit has been forced to be caller to support Multilink PPP PVC Attributes Modification Feature.

What is cktMPForcedCaller?

This read-write flag forces this end of the circuit into the 'caller' role for Multilink PPP negotiation, overriding whatever role would otherwise be negotiated dynamically, specifically to support the PVC Attributes Modification Feature. In point-to-point PPP/MP negotiation one side must originate the LCP/MP negotiation as caller and the other as callee, so this object lets an admin pin that role explicitly rather than leaving it to negotiation, which matters when AMF-driven mid-session changes need a deterministic initiator. An engineer configuring a central-office switch as the always-initiating side of a multilink bundle to a remote CPE device would set cktMPForcedCaller to isMPForcedCaller(1) on the CO-side circuit.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.277.1.6.1.1.161
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> CASCADE-MIB::cktMPForcedCaller

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.277.1.6.1.1.161.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> CASCADE-MIB::cktMPForcedCaller.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.277.1.6.1.1.161.1 i <value>
