Description: Setting this to true will allow the agent to start collecting DLCS binding information using the DNS protocol.

What is extremeDlcsDnsEnable?

This boolean object turns on DLCS binding collection specifically via the DNS protocol, letting the agent learn hostname-to-IP associations by observing DNS query and response traffic. Administrators enable this to have DLCS populate the Host name field of binding entries from DNS lookups it sees crossing the switch. Setting it to true causes bindings sourced from DNS observation to appear with dns(5) as their extremeDlcsBindingSource.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.1916.1.8.5
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> EXTREME-DLCS-MIB::extremeDlcsDnsEnable

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.1916.1.8.5.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> EXTREME-DLCS-MIB::extremeDlcsDnsEnable.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.1916.1.8.5.1 s <value>
