snSwBroadcastLimit
Module: FOUNDRY-SN-SWITCH-GROUP-MIB
OID (symbolic): FOUNDRY-SN-SWITCH-GROUP-MIB::snSwBroadcastLimit
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.1991.1.1.3.1.35
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: Integer32
Access: read-write
Description: Limit the number of broadcast packets to forward out of the switch ports. This object specifies the number of broadcast packets per second. Setting a value of 0 to this object disables the limitation check. This object is deprecated by snSwBroadcastLimit2 on NI platform.
What is snSwBroadcastLimit?
This object limits the number of broadcast packets forwarded per second across switch ports to prevent broadcast storms that could degrade network performance. Setting a value specifies the maximum broadcast packet rate allowed; setting it to zero disables the limit entirely. Network administrators configure this to protect against excessive broadcast traffic while allowing legitimate broadcast communication.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.1991.1.1.3.1.35 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> FOUNDRY-SN-SWITCH-GROUP-MIB::snSwBroadcastLimit
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.1991.1.1.3.1.35.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> FOUNDRY-SN-SWITCH-GROUP-MIB::snSwBroadcastLimit.1
Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):
snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.1991.1.1.3.1.35.1 i <value>
