snOspfExtLsdbLimit

Module: HP-SN-OSPF-GROUP-MIB

OID (symbolic): HP-SN-OSPF-GROUP-MIB::snOspfExtLsdbLimit

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.3.7.11.12.2.4.1.11

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: The maximum number of non-default AS- external-LSAs entries that can be stored in the link-state database. If the value is -1, then there is no limit.

When the number of non-default AS-external-LSAs in a router's link-state database reaches ospfExtLsdbLimit, the router enters Overflow- State. The router never holds more than ospfExtLsdbLimit non-default AS-external-LSAs in its database. OspfExtLsdbLimit MUST be set identically in all routers attached to the OSPF backbone and/or any regular OSPF area. (i.e., OSPF stub areas and NSSAs are excluded).

What is snOspfExtLsdbLimit?

Caps how many non-default external LSAs the router will hold in its link-state database (1 to 2000, with -1 meaning unlimited); once the count reaches this limit the router enters overflow state and stops originating new external LSAs. This value must be configured identically on every router sharing the OSPF backbone or a regular area, so admins should not set it per-device without coordinating the whole domain.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.3.7.11.12.2.4.1.11
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> HP-SN-OSPF-GROUP-MIB::snOspfExtLsdbLimit

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.3.7.11.12.2.4.1.11.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> HP-SN-OSPF-GROUP-MIB::snOspfExtLsdbLimit.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.3.7.11.12.2.4.1.11.1 i <value>

SNMPv3 example:

snmpget -v3 -l authPriv -u snmpv3-user -a SHA -A "AuthPassword1" -x AES -X "PrivPassword1" <target> snOspfExtLsdbLimit.1
