Description: The value of route preference.Route preference is the value used to select one route over other when more than one route to the same destination is learned from different protocols, peers, or static routes from end-users. The preference value is an arbitrary assigned value used to determine the order of routes to the same destination in a single routing database(RIB). The active route is chosen by the lowest preference value.

What is fcRoutePreference?

This read-write value sets the preference (priority) of a Fibre Channel route so that when multiple routes to the same destination exist (from different protocols, peers, or static configuration), the one with the better preference is chosen.

Examples

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.284.1.1.2
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> CISCO-FC-ROUTE-MIB::fcRoutePreference

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.284.1.1.2.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> CISCO-FC-ROUTE-MIB::fcRoutePreference.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.284.1.1.2.1 i <value>
