snBgp4GenFastExternalFallover

Module: HP-SN-BGP4-GROUP-MIB

OID (symbolic): HP-SN-BGP4-GROUP-MIB::snBgp4GenFastExternalFallover

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.3.7.11.12.2.11.1.5

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: To enable/disable an action of immediately reset the BGP sessions of any directly adjacent external neighbors if the link used to reach them goes down.

What is snBgp4GenFastExternalFallover?

Enables or disables fast external fallover, which immediately tears down a BGP session with a directly connected external (eBGP) neighbor as soon as the physical link to reach it goes down, rather than waiting for the hold timer to expire. Enabling this speeds up failover after a link failure, at the cost of possibly flapping sessions on a momentarily unstable link.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.3.7.11.12.2.11.1.5
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> HP-SN-BGP4-GROUP-MIB::snBgp4GenFastExternalFallover

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.3.7.11.12.2.11.1.5.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> HP-SN-BGP4-GROUP-MIB::snBgp4GenFastExternalFallover.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.3.7.11.12.2.11.1.5.1 i <value>
