nbsBufferThreshold

Module: GSWITCH-MIB

OID (symbolic): GSWITCH-MIB::nbsBufferThreshold

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.629.2.3.10

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: Buffer Threshold Enable. Meaningful only when RMONEn bit (internal) is set. 1 - The buffers allocated to the ports are limited to the number which is written in the Rx Buffers Threshold Register. 2 - There is no limitation on the buffers allocation

What is nbsBufferThreshold?

This read-write OID, meaningful only when RMON mode is active, controls whether receive buffers allocated per port are capped by the Rx Buffers Threshold Register (value 1, limited) or left uncapped (value 2, not-limited). An admin would set this to limited to prevent one busy port from starving buffer resources from others.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.629.2.3.10
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> GSWITCH-MIB::nbsBufferThreshold

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.629.2.3.10.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> GSWITCH-MIB::nbsBufferThreshold.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.629.2.3.10.1 i <value>

SNMPv3 example:

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