Module: FOUNDRY-SN-STACKING-MIB

OID (symbolic): FOUNDRY-SN-STACKING-MIB::snStackingGlobalPersistentMacTimer

Description: Persistent MAC timer in minutes for the stacking system Number of minutes to retain original active stack unit's base MAC address in event of active unit crash or removal. This timer is triggered when new active unit is elected. When timer expires, new active unit will change stacking MAC to its own base MAC address and advertise its own base MAC address to management VLAN to update the ARP table of peers. If you decide to use new active unit's MAC address, one must enter this timer again to reactivate the persistent MAC. 0 - keep it forever. 5 to 6000 - valid value range. 60 - default value.

What is snStackingGlobalPersistentMacTimer?

Read-write integer (0, or 5-6000, default 60) giving the persistent MAC timer in minutes: how long the stack retains the former active unit's base MAC address after a failover before switching to the new active unit's own MAC and re-advertising it; 0 means keep the old MAC forever.
