What is mstpGenBridgeMaxAge?

This OID holds the administratively configured Bridge Max Age timer for the spanning tree, expressed in hundredths of a second within the 600-4000 range (6-40 seconds). A network admin sets this to control how long a BPDU is considered valid before the bridge treats the topology information as stale and recalculates. Raising it makes the tree more tolerant of transient BPDU loss at the cost of slower reconvergence.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.6027.20.2.10.2
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> FORCE10-MSTP-MIB::mstpGenBridgeMaxAge

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.6027.20.2.10.2.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> FORCE10-MSTP-MIB::mstpGenBridgeMaxAge.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.6027.20.2.10.2.1 s <value>
