cmPhyIfProtocol

Module: CISCO-METRO-PHY-MIB

OID (symbolic): CISCO-METRO-PHY-MIB::cmPhyIfProtocol

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.10.69.1.1.1.1.2

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: ProtocolType

Access: read-write

Description: This object is used to specify the protocol of the data carried over the client side interface.

This object applies to linecards which support a variety of protocols and allow dynamic configuration of the specific protocol to be monitored on the interface. The ifType value for such interfaces remains fixed. The agent may use this object to identify the protocol to be monitored (see the cmPhyIfMonitor object), to set the clock rate for the interface (see the cmPhyIfClockRate object), or to enable or disable functionality related to the protocol, for example OFC (see the cmPhyIfOFC object).

The value of this object cannot be modified when the cmPhyIfMonitor object is set to 'true' for that interface. Also, this object does not apply to the trunk side interfaces.

What is cmPhyIfProtocol?

Configures which protocol is carried and monitored on the client-side interface, for linecards that support dynamic selection among multiple protocols.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.10.69.1.1.1.1.2
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> CISCO-METRO-PHY-MIB::cmPhyIfProtocol

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.10.69.1.1.1.1.2.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> CISCO-METRO-PHY-MIB::cmPhyIfProtocol.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.10.69.1.1.1.1.2.1 s <value>
