etsysInvalidPolicyAction

Module: ENTERASYS-POLICY-PROFILE-MIB

OID (symbolic): ENTERASYS-POLICY-PROFILE-MIB::etsysInvalidPolicyAction

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.5624.1.2.6.6.1

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: Specifies the action that the edge device should take if asked to apply an invalid or unknown policy.

applyDefaultPolicy(1) - Ignore the result and search for the next policy assignment rule. dropPackets(2) - Block traffic. forwardPackets(3) - Forward traffic, as if no policy had been assigned (via 802.1D/Q rules).

Although dropPackets(2) is the most secure option, it may not always be desirable.

What is etsysInvalidPolicyAction?

Controls what the device does when asked to apply a policy it doesn't recognize: fall through to the next assignment rule, drop the traffic, or forward it as if no policy had been assigned.

Examples

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> ENTERASYS-POLICY-PROFILE-MIB::etsysInvalidPolicyAction

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.5624.1.2.6.6.1.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> ENTERASYS-POLICY-PROFILE-MIB::etsysInvalidPolicyAction.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.5624.1.2.6.6.1.1 i <value>
