expressGSBufferAgeTimer

Module: EXPRESSGS-MIB

OID (symbolic): EXPRESSGS-MIB::expressGSBufferAgeTimer

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.343.6.13.3.7.1.1.6

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: Configures the timer used for aging frames in this buffer. If the timer expires for a frame, the frame is dropped and the event is counted in the stale drop counter. By default, the age timer is set to a 0.25 seconds (quarter of a second).

The actual time that a frame may be aged out may vary. When set to a quarter of a second (250ms), the actual time may vary between 160ms and 320ms. When set to a second (1000ms), the time may vary between 640ms and 1.28 seconds (1028ms).

What is expressGSBufferAgeTimer?

Sets how long a frame may sit in this buffer before it is aged out and dropped: disable(1), quarter-second(2) (default, ~160-320ms), or one-second(3) (~640ms-1.28s). An admin shortens this on latency-sensitive buffers so stale frames are discarded quickly rather than delivered late.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.343.6.13.3.7.1.1.6
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> EXPRESSGS-MIB::expressGSBufferAgeTimer

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.343.6.13.3.7.1.1.6.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> EXPRESSGS-MIB::expressGSBufferAgeTimer.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.343.6.13.3.7.1.1.6.1 i <value>
