flowRuleAction

Module: FLOW-METER-MIB

OID (symbolic): FLOW-METER-MIB::flowRuleAction

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.40.3.1.1.6

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: ActionNumber

Access: read-write

Description: The action to be taken if this rule's test succeeds, or if the meter's 'test' flag is off. Actions are opcodes for the meter's Packet Matching Engine; details are given in the 'Traffic Flow Measurement: Architecture' document [RTFM-ARC].

What is flowRuleAction?

Specifies the Packet Matching Engine opcode to execute when this rule's test succeeds (or when the meter's test flag is off), such as count, assign, or goto. An admin chains these opcodes across rules to build the classification logic for a RuleSet.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.40.3.1.1.6
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> FLOW-METER-MIB::flowRuleAction

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.40.3.1.1.6.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> FLOW-METER-MIB::flowRuleAction.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.40.3.1.1.6.1 s <value>
