dot3OamCriticalEventEnable
Module: DOT3-OAM-MIB
OID (symbolic): DOT3-OAM-MIB::dot3OamCriticalEventEnable
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.158.1.5.1.16
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: TruthValue
Access: read-write
Description: If true, the local OAM entity should attempt to indicate a critical event via the OAMPDU flags to its peer OAM entity when a critical event occurs. The exact definition of a critical event is implementation dependent. If the system does not support critical event capability, setting this object has no effect, and reading the object should always result in 'false'.
By default, this object should have the value true for Ethernet-like interfaces that support OAM. If the OAM layer does not support Event Notifications (as indicated via the dot3OamFunctionsSupported attribute), this value is ignored.
What is dot3OamCriticalEventEnable?
This read-write boolean, true by default where supported, controls whether the local OAM entity signals a 'critical event' flag to its peer when an implementation-defined severe fault occurs; unsupported hardware always reads back false. An admin would disable this only if the vendor's critical-event definition proves too noisy for their environment.
