hpicfAnnounceDiscoveryAddress

Module: HP-ICF-BASIC

OID (symbolic): HP-ICF-BASIC::hpicfAnnounceDiscoveryAddress

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.14.11.1.4.7.3.1.1

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: MacAddress

Access: read-write

Description: Seting an instance of this object to any MAC address will trigger the agent to transmit three announcement packets on an interface associated with the logical entity. These packets will use a MAC source address set to the agent's MAC address on that interface, a MAC destination address equal to the value of the instance of this object, a destination LSAP of 0xF8, and a destination HP XSAP of 0x165d.

What is hpicfAnnounceDiscoveryAddress?

Setting this object to any MAC address on a given interface triggers the device to send three announcement packets from that interface, addressed to the specified MAC, as part of HP's topology-discovery mechanism. Network mapping tools use this to actively probe and confirm connectivity for a specific logical device.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.14.11.1.4.7.3.1.1
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> HP-ICF-BASIC::hpicfAnnounceDiscoveryAddress

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.14.11.1.4.7.3.1.1.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> HP-ICF-BASIC::hpicfAnnounceDiscoveryAddress.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.14.11.1.4.7.3.1.1.1 s <value>
