phivControlPollingState

Module: DECnet-iv

OID (symbolic): DECnet-iv::phivControlPollingState

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.18.8.5.1.10

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: This value represents the state of the tributary relative to the multipoint polling algorithm. If not set the default is AUTOMATIC. The possible states are:

AUTOMATIC

The tributary's state is allowed to vary according to the operation of the polling algorithm.

ACTIVE/INACTIVE/DYING/DEAD

The tributary is locked in the specified state.

NOTE: These values are incremented by one compared to the standard DECnet values in order to maintain compliance with RFC 1155.

What is phivControlPollingState?

Sets or reports where a tributary sits in the multipoint polling algorithm: Automatic lets its state vary naturally with polling activity (the default if unset), or an admin can lock it explicitly into Active, Inactive, Dying, or Dead regardless of actual responsiveness, for example to force a known-bad tributary off the polling cycle.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.18.8.5.1.10
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> DECnet-iv::phivControlPollingState

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.18.8.5.1.10.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> DECnet-iv::phivControlPollingState.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.18.8.5.1.10.1 i <value>
