mrbranchBranch

Module: CISCO-IPMCAST-MIB

OID (symbolic): CISCO-IPMCAST-MIB::mrbranchBranch

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.10.4.1.2.1.3

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: IpAddress

Access: read-write

Description: The branch address, i.e., the IP unicast address of the responding router, to be used by the next SNMP-invoked mrbranch command.

What is mrbranchBranch?

This holds the unicast IP address of the specific responding router to be probed by the next SNMP-invoked mrbranch command, per its description. Because a multicast distribution tree can branch across many routers, this parameter tells the mrbranch facility exactly which downstream or upstream router in the tree to query for its portion of the path. Setting this to 10.1.1.5 would direct the next trace to query that particular router's forwarding state for the group specified in mrbranchGroup.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.10.4.1.2.1.3
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> CISCO-IPMCAST-MIB::mrbranchBranch

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.10.4.1.2.1.3.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> CISCO-IPMCAST-MIB::mrbranchBranch.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.10.4.1.2.1.3.1 a <value>

SNMPv3 example:

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