mstpGenForceVersion

Module: FORCE10-MSTP-MIB

OID (symbolic): FORCE10-MSTP-MIB::mstpGenForceVersion

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.6027.20.2.10.20

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: The value forceNonStp(0) indicates, the Spanning Tree Protocol is disabled on the Bridge (or the Spanning Tree Protocol Emulation operates). Other possible values are described in IEEE Std 802.1s clause 12.8.1.3.e)

What is mstpGenForceVersion?

This OID lets an admin force the bridge to run a specific spanning-tree protocol version — disabled (forceNonStp), legacy 802.1D (forceLegacyDot1d), RSTP (forceDot1w), or full auto-negotiated MSTP (autoDot1s, the default) — instead of letting it auto-detect. It's used to interoperate with older switches that don't understand MSTP BPDUs by deliberately downgrading this bridge's behavior.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.6027.20.2.10.20
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> FORCE10-MSTP-MIB::mstpGenForceVersion

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.6027.20.2.10.20.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> FORCE10-MSTP-MIB::mstpGenForceVersion.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.6027.20.2.10.20.1 i <value>
