What is rlDhcpSrvProbeRetries?

This read-write Unsigned32 (1 to 10) sets how many times the DHCP probe retries before deciding no other device holds the candidate IP address. An admin tunes this alongside the probe timeout to control the thoroughness of conflict checking before assigning an address. For example, setting this to 3 means the server will attempt up to three probes for a candidate address before allocating it.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.6.1.101.38.38
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> CISCOSB-DHCP-MIB::rlDhcpSrvProbeRetries

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.6.1.101.38.38.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> CISCOSB-DHCP-MIB::rlDhcpSrvProbeRetries.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.6.1.101.38.38.1 i <value>
