gsEBridgePortPathCost

Module: GIGAswitchEthernet-MIB

OID (symbolic): GIGAswitchEthernet-MIB::gsEBridgePortPathCost

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.36.2.18.39.5.1.3.1.1.5

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: The contribution of this port to the path cost of the paths towards the spanning tree root. See dot1dStpPortPathCost. The default value is dependent on the port speed, trunking mode, and duplexity.

What is gsEBridgePortPathCost?

Sets this port's contribution to the total path cost toward the STP root, mirroring dot1dStpPortPathCost; its default is derived automatically from the port's speed, trunking mode, and duplex setting. Admins override it manually to bias STP's path selection, e.g. lowering the cost on a preferred backup link.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.36.2.18.39.5.1.3.1.1.5
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> GIGAswitchEthernet-MIB::gsEBridgePortPathCost

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.36.2.18.39.5.1.3.1.1.5.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> GIGAswitchEthernet-MIB::gsEBridgePortPathCost.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.36.2.18.39.5.1.3.1.1.5.1 i <value>
