hwVlanPolicyMulticast

Module: HUAWEI-VLAN-MIB

OID (symbolic): HUAWEI-VLAN-MIB::hwVlanPolicyMulticast

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.2011.5.6.1.1.1.18

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: Indicates the VLAN-based forwarding policy for the unknown multicast packets. Options: 1. forward(1) -indicates that the unknown multicast packets are transparently transmitted. 2. discard(2) -indicates that the unknown multicast packets are discarded.

During the creation of a VLAN, if this leaf is not specified, forward(1) is adopted by default. You can perform the set operation on this leaf to modify the VLAN-based forwarding policy for the unknown multicast packets. The VLAN-based forwarding policy for the unknown multicast packets can also be configured in hwPolicyMulticast of hwVlanSrvProfTable. If a VLAN service profile is bound to the VLAN, the configuration in the VLAN service profile takes effect.

What is hwVlanPolicyMulticast?

Sets whether unknown multicast packets in this VLAN are forwarded (1, the default) or discarded (2) when no matching multicast group entry exists. If a VLAN service profile is bound to the VLAN, its own hwPolicyMulticast setting in hwVlanSrvProfTable takes precedence over this value.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.2011.5.6.1.1.1.18
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> HUAWEI-VLAN-MIB::hwVlanPolicyMulticast

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.2011.5.6.1.1.1.18.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> HUAWEI-VLAN-MIB::hwVlanPolicyMulticast.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.2011.5.6.1.1.1.18.1 i <value>

Start monitoring Huawei enterprise/campus switch (VLAN configuration, e.g. CloudEngine S5735-L-V2) with a free 30-day trial of IPNetwork Monitor. Create custom SNMP monitor using the HUAWEI-VLAN-MIB::hwVlanPolicyMulticast OID value, configure state conditions and alerts, and monitor any Huawei enterprise/campus switch (VLAN configuration, e.g. CloudEngine S5735-L-V2) from a single console.
