flowRuleInfoStatus
Module: FLOW-METER-MIB
OID (symbolic): FLOW-METER-MIB::flowRuleInfoStatus
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.40.1.1.1.5
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: RowStatus
Access: read-create
Description: The status of this flowRuleSetInfoEntry. If this value is not active(1) the meter must not attempt to use the row's associated RuleSet. Once its value has been set to active(1) a manager may not change any of the other variables in the row, nor the contents of the associated RuleSet. Any attempt to do so should result in a notWritable(17) SNMP error-status for such variables or objects.
To download a RuleSet, a manger could: - Locate an open slot in the RuleSetInfoTable. - Create a RuleSetInfoEntry by setting the status for this open slot to createAndWait(5). - Set flowRuleInfoSize and flowRuleInfoName as required. - Download the rules into the row's rule table. - Set flowRuleInfoStatus to active(1).
The RuleSet would then be ready to run. The manager is not allowed to change the value of flowRuleInfoStatus from active(1) if the associated RuleSet is being referenced by any of the entries in the flowManagerInfoTable.
Setting RuleInfoStatus to destroy(6) destroys the associated RuleSet together with any flow data collected by it.
What is flowRuleInfoStatus?
Controls the lifecycle of this RuleSet row: while not active(1) the meter ignores the RuleSet, and once set to active(1) its rules become locked against further changes. An admin walks this through createAndWait, downloads the rules, then sets it to active(1) to put the RuleSet into service; setting it to destroy(6) removes the RuleSet and any flow data it collected.
