dot3OamCriticalEventEnable

Module: EFM-COMMON-MIB

OID (symbolic): EFM-COMMON-MIB::dot3OamCriticalEventEnable

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.9908.1.5.1.16

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: Indicates whether the local device should attempt to indicate a critical event fault via the OAMPDU flags field to its peer OAM entity. If the system does not support critical event capability, setting this object has no effect, and reading the object should always result in 'disabled(2)'.

By default, this object should have the value enabled(1) 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?

Set to enabled(1), the default where supported, to have this device signal a critical, non-dying-gasp fault to its OAM peer via the OAM PDU flags field; if the hardware doesn't support critical-event signaling, this always reads back disabled(2) regardless of how it's set.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.9908.1.5.1.16
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> EFM-COMMON-MIB::dot3OamCriticalEventEnable

Get a specific instance (index 1):
