Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

What is nbsPortSpaning?

This read-write OID, meaningful only when nbsSpanningTree is enabled, controls whether this port accepts all packets (value 1) or discards everything except BPDU packets (value 2). An admin sets a port to discard-except-BPDU while it's in a Spanning Tree blocking state.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.629.2.5.1.1.9
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> GSWITCH-MIB::nbsPortSpaning

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.629.2.5.1.1.9.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> GSWITCH-MIB::nbsPortSpaning.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.629.2.5.1.1.9.1 i <value>
