Module: DECATM-MIB

OID (symbolic): DECATM-MIB::dxatmVpModeDesired

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.36.2.18.17.2.3.1.1.2

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: The desired virtual path mode for the line card in this slot. On a Version 2.0 line card,

on (1) lets you use virtual path terminations - but restricts you to the use of one port.

off(2) lets you use all four mod-PHY ports - but only with VPI zero.

Line cards which can't support VPs or which can support them without such tradeoffs will ignore this setting.

What is dxatmVpModeDesired?

This sets whether a line card should run in virtual-path mode (on) or not (off); on a Version 2.0 card, 'on' restricts the card to a single port but enables VP terminations, while 'off' allows all four mod-PHY ports but only with VPI zero. Admins choose this trade-off explicitly per slot based on whether they need multiple ports or VP support on that card.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.36.2.18.17.2.3.1.1.2
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> DECATM-MIB::dxatmVpModeDesired

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.36.2.18.17.2.3.1.1.2.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> DECATM-MIB::dxatmVpModeDesired.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.36.2.18.17.2.3.1.1.2.1 i <value>
