ibSmaPortHeadOfQueueLife

Module: IB-SMA-MIB

OID (symbolic): IB-SMA-MIB::ibSmaPortHeadOfQueueLife

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.3.117.3.1.5.1.1.19

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Unsigned32

Access: read-only

Description: Sets the time a packet can live at the head of a Virtual Lane queue. This variable (HL) is used to compute the Head of the Queue Lifetime Limit (HLL). It is used in the formula when the HL value is between 0 and 19, inclusive. When HL is greater than 19, the HLL is to be interpreted as infinite.

What is ibSmaPortHeadOfQueueLife?

Value (0-20, 'infinite' if greater than 19) used to compute how long a packet can sit at the head of a Virtual Lane queue before being dropped, tuned alongside ibSmaSwLifeTimeValue to control worst-case queuing delay.
