Description: This object indicates the DNS Resolver name server time out.

What is swDNSResNameSrvTimeOut?

This object sets how many seconds the DNS resolver waits for a reply from a configured name server before giving up. A shorter timeout speeds up failover to the next server when one is unreachable, while a longer timeout tolerates slow or congested links. For example, an admin on a WAN link with high latency might raise this from the default of 3 seconds to 10 to avoid premature timeouts.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.171.12.85.1.2
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> DNSResolver-MIB::swDNSResNameSrvTimeOut

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.171.12.85.1.2.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> DNSResolver-MIB::swDNSResNameSrvTimeOut.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.171.12.85.1.2.1 i <value>
