hpicfIpConfigPingRouter

Module: HP-ICF-BASIC

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

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.14.11.1.4.8.1.1.4

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: TruthValue

Access: read-write

Description: ********* THIS OBJECT IS DEPRECATED *********

This object is used to configure whether this agent will periodically send ICMP echo request packets to the IP default router for this interface. Since a networking device typically does not transmit unless it receives a management request, and since some autodiscovery applications work by scanning ARP caches, this ICMP echo can be used to try to stay in our default router's ARP cache so that we can be discovered. This object allows the network manager to enable or disable sending these ICMP echo requests.

What is hpicfIpConfigPingRouter?

This deprecated, per-interface boolean controls whether the device periodically pings its default router on that interface, a trick used to keep the device's entry fresh in the router's ARP cache so autodiscovery tools relying on ARP scans can still find it. It has been superseded by the global hpicfIpGlobalPingRouter object.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.14.11.1.4.8.1.1.4
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> HP-ICF-BASIC::hpicfIpConfigPingRouter

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.14.11.1.4.8.1.1.4.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> HP-ICF-BASIC::hpicfIpConfigPingRouter.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.14.11.1.4.8.1.1.4.1 s <value>
