foreSonetPathDiagnosticsB3

Module: Fore-Sonet-Ext-MIB

OID (symbolic): Fore-Sonet-Ext-MIB::foreSonetPathDiagnosticsB3

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.326.2.2.1.1.14.4.4.1.3

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: Controls the insertion of Path BIP errors in the sonet path B3 byte overhead.

off When set to off, do not generate path BIP errors. on When set to on, generate path BIP errors. momentary When set to momentary, transmit a chip dependent number of Sonet frames with path BIP errors.

What is foreSonetPathDiagnosticsB3?

A test-mode control that injects Path-layer BIP errors into the B3 overhead byte of transmitted frames: off (default) generates none, on generates them continuously, and momentary sends a short burst. It's used to confirm a peer correctly counts and alarms on Path BIP errors.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.326.2.2.1.1.14.4.4.1.3
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> Fore-Sonet-Ext-MIB::foreSonetPathDiagnosticsB3

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.326.2.2.1.1.14.4.4.1.3.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> Fore-Sonet-Ext-MIB::foreSonetPathDiagnosticsB3.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.326.2.2.1.1.14.4.4.1.3.1 i <value>

SNMPv3 example:

snmpget -v3 -l authPriv -u snmpv3-user -a SHA -A "AuthPassword1" -x AES -X "PrivPassword1" <target> foreSonetPathDiagnosticsB3.1
