ciscoPnniBackgroundRoutes

Module: CISCO-PNNI-MIB

OID (symbolic): CISCO-PNNI-MIB::ciscoPnniBackgroundRoutes

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.65.1.1.1

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: TruthValue

Access: read-write

Description: Specifies whether background route computation is enabled on this switching system. In this mode, multiple background trees are precomputed for several service categories and QoS metrics. If no route is found in the background trees that satisfies the QoS requirements of a particular setup request, route selection reverts to on-demand computation.

When the value of this object is `false', only on-demand route computation is used (i.e., a separate route computation is performed for each SETUP or ADD PARTY message received over a UNI or IISP interface, or for which this node is a PNNI entry border node).

It is recommended that background route computation be enabled in large networks, due to better scalability in terms of processing requirements.

What is ciscoPnniBackgroundRoutes?

This read-write object enables or disables background route computation on the switch, a mode where multiple candidate routes are precomputed ahead of time for various service categories and QoS metrics.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.65.1.1.1
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> CISCO-PNNI-MIB::ciscoPnniBackgroundRoutes

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.65.1.1.1.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> CISCO-PNNI-MIB::ciscoPnniBackgroundRoutes.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.65.1.1.1.1 s <value>
