gsEPortRateLimitBurstSize

Module: GIGAswitchEthernet-MIB

OID (symbolic): GIGAswitchEthernet-MIB::gsEPortRateLimitBurstSize

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.36.2.18.39.3.6.6.1.1.63

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: The maximum number of consecutive transmitted flooded (or flooded and known multicasted) packets. Typically, the burst size is set so as to not overflow the port's buffer.

What is gsEPortRateLimitBurstSize?

Caps how many flooded packets in a row the port can transmit consecutively, from rateLimit1(1) up to rateLimit2048(11). Admins size this to the port's actual buffer depth so a burst of floods doesn't overrun the output queue and cause tail drops elsewhere.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.36.2.18.39.3.6.6.1.1.63
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> GIGAswitchEthernet-MIB::gsEPortRateLimitBurstSize

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.36.2.18.39.3.6.6.1.1.63.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> GIGAswitchEthernet-MIB::gsEPortRateLimitBurstSize.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.36.2.18.39.3.6.6.1.1.63.1 i <value>
