What is gsEBridgeMode?

Enables or disables Spanning Tree for this specific bridge instance; when disabled(2), BPDUs are simply forwarded as ordinary multicast frames instead of being processed by STP. Admins disable this only in controlled setups where they're intentionally running STP elsewhere and don't want this bridge to participate.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.36.2.18.39.5.1.2.1.1.3
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> GIGAswitchEthernet-MIB::gsEBridgeMode

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.36.2.18.39.5.1.2.1.1.3.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> GIGAswitchEthernet-MIB::gsEBridgeMode.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.36.2.18.39.5.1.2.1.1.3.1 i <value>
