cpqnBootpRetries
Module: CPQNUNIF-MIB
OID (symbolic): CPQNUNIF-MIB::cpqnBootpRetries
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.232.121.7.1.1.3
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: INTEGER
Access: read-write
Description: DURABLE: This determines the number of BOOTP requests that will be transmitted from the interface indicated by cpqnBootpIfIndex. This object is used in conjunction with the cpqnBootpRetryInterval object. If both frame types are enabled, then for each try, two BOOTP frames will be generated, one for each frame type.
WARNING: Remember that while the unit is booting up, management may not be available, so be careful in selecting the number of retries and the interval for BOOTP. If these values are large, then the SNMP agent could be delayed in starting up by a significant time.
What is cpqnBootpRetries?
This read-write integer sets how many BOOTP request attempts the unit makes on the interface given by cpqnBootpIfIndex, working together with cpqnBootpRetryInterval, and doubling if both frame types are enabled since each try sends one frame per type. An admin tunes this carefully, since the description warns that management may be unavailable while the unit is still booting and retrying BOOTP. For example, setting cpqnBootpRetries too high on a unit with an unreachable BOOTP server would prolong the boot-time window during which the unit isn't manageable.
