j2IdleUnassignedCells

Module: Fore-J2-MIB

OID (symbolic): Fore-J2-MIB::j2IdleUnassignedCells

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.326.2.2.1.1.6.1.1.1.8

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Description: This variable indicates the types of cells that should be sent in case there is no real data to send. According to the ATM Forum, Unassigned cells should be sent (octet 1-3 are 0's, octet 4 is 0000xxx0, where x is 'don't care'). According to the CCITT specifications, Idle cells should be sent (everything is '0' except for the CLP bit which is '1'). By default, unassigned cells are transmitted in case there is no data to send.

What is j2IdleUnassignedCells?

Controls which type of filler ATM cell this port transmits when there's no real traffic to send -- ATM Forum-style unassigned cells (the default) or CCITT-style idle cells.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.326.2.2.1.1.6.1.1.1.8
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> Fore-J2-MIB::j2IdleUnassignedCells

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.326.2.2.1.1.6.1.1.1.8.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> Fore-J2-MIB::j2IdleUnassignedCells.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.326.2.2.1.1.6.1.1.1.8.1 i <value>
