diffServConfigDescr

Module: DIFFSERV-CONFIG-MIB

OID (symbolic): DIFFSERV-CONFIG-MIB::diffServConfigDescr

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.108.1.2.1.2

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: SnmpAdminString

Access: read-create

Description: A human-readable description to identify this defined per-hop-behavior. Note that this is an SnmpAdminString, which permits UTF-8 strings. An administratively assigned identifier for a template that would be unique within an administrative domain. It is up to the management applications to agree how these are assigned within the administrative domain. Once a description, such as 'EF' is assigned, that has a certain set of parameters that achieve 'EF' from box to box. Management application code or script code can then scan the table to find the proper template and then assign it.

What is diffServConfigDescr?

This SnmpAdminString gives the human-readable description that identifies a defined per-hop-behavior template in the diffServConfigTable, such as 'EF' for Expedited Forwarding. Admins and management scripts use this label to find and reuse a pre-agreed template whose parameters achieve a known behavior consistently across boxes in the administrative domain. For example, a provisioning script would scan the table for an entry with this field set to 'EF' to locate the standard low-latency template before applying it to a new interface.
