What is drIpInterfaceIcmpRedirects?

This setting enables or disables the router sending ICMP redirect messages on this interface when it has to re-send a packet back out the same interface it arrived on. Admins often disable this on interfaces facing untrusted networks since ICMP redirects can be abused to manipulate host routing tables. For example, disabling drIpInterfaceIcmpRedirects on an internet-facing interface prevents the router from emitting redirect messages that a malicious host could otherwise leverage.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.81.31.6.1.1.14
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> CROUTE-MIB::drIpInterfaceIcmpRedirects

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.81.31.6.1.1.14.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> CROUTE-MIB::drIpInterfaceIcmpRedirects.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.81.31.6.1.1.14.1 i <value>
