decLesArpResponsePolicy

Module: DEC-LES-MIB

OID (symbolic): DEC-LES-MIB::decLesArpResponsePolicy

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.36.2.18.28.1.1.1.13

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: Lets you fine-tune the performance of an emulated LAN by controlling the distribution of LE_ARP_RESPONSEs.

You can choose from one of three policies:

unspecified(1) Leave everything up to the implementation.

direct(2) The LES sends responses only to the client to which they are directed. This reduces the amount of overhead per response packet, but may result in more LE_ARP traffic.

broadcast(3) The LES sends responses to all clients via the Control Direct VCC. This lets clients learn LE_ARP information by eavesdropping, but also increases per-packet overhead.

What is decLesArpResponsePolicy?

Controls how this LES distributes LE_ARP_RESPONSEs: direct sends a response only to the requesting client (less overhead but more LE_ARP traffic overall), broadcast sends every response to all clients so they can learn addresses by eavesdropping (more per-packet overhead), and unspecified leaves the choice to the implementation.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.36.2.18.28.1.1.1.13
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> DEC-LES-MIB::decLesArpResponsePolicy

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.36.2.18.28.1.1.1.13.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> DEC-LES-MIB::decLesArpResponsePolicy.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.36.2.18.28.1.1.1.13.1 i <value>
