Module: HM2-PLATFORM-ROUTING-MIB

OID (symbolic): HM2-PLATFORM-ROUTING-MIB::hm2AgentBootpDhcpRelayMaxHopCount

Description: The BOOTP/DHCP Max Hop Count. The relay agent silently discards BOOTREQUEST messages whose hops field exceeds the value 16 assuming that the request is looped through the intermediate agents. The default value is 4.

What is hm2AgentBootpDhcpRelayMaxHopCount?

Maximum hop count (1 to 16, default 4) for BOOTP/DHCP relaying; requests whose hop count exceeds it are silently discarded as presumed loops. The text mentions discarding above 16 while the setting itself is configurable, so the effective limit follows the configured value.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.248.12.2.6.1
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> HM2-PLATFORM-ROUTING-MIB::hm2AgentBootpDhcpRelayMaxHopCount

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.248.12.2.6.1.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> HM2-PLATFORM-ROUTING-MIB::hm2AgentBootpDhcpRelayMaxHopCount.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.248.12.2.6.1.1 i <value>
