nsapTopoLinkFreshness

Module: Fore-Switch-MIB

OID (symbolic): Fore-Switch-MIB::nsapTopoLinkFreshness

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.326.2.2.2.1.9.3.1.18

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Integer32

Access: read-only

Description: This object indicates the freshness (or staleness) of this NSAP (Network Service Access Point) link. As the number increases, the link becomes stale.

What is nsapTopoLinkFreshness?

This object measures how stale (outdated) topology information is for a link identified by an NSAP (Network Service Access Point), with higher values indicating older data. The metric helps track the age of link state advertisements used for routing decisions in ATM networks. Network operators use this to ensure routing decisions are based on current topology, as stale information can cause suboptimal or incorrect routing.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.326.2.2.2.1.9.3.1.18
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> Fore-Switch-MIB::nsapTopoLinkFreshness

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.326.2.2.2.1.9.3.1.18.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> Fore-Switch-MIB::nsapTopoLinkFreshness.1

SNMPv3 example:

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