dot3adAggPortAlgorithm
Module: IEEE8023-LAG-MIB
OID (symbolic): IEEE8023-LAG-MIB::dot3adAggPortAlgorithm
OID (numeric): 1.2.840.10006.300.43.1.1.3.1.21
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: OCTET STRING
Access: read-write
Description: This object identifies the algorithm used by the Aggregator to assign frames to a Port Conversation ID. Table 6-4 provides the IEEE 802.1 OUI (00-80-C2) Port Algorithm encodings. A SEQUENCE OF OCTETS consisting of a 3-octet OUI or CID and one following octet.
What is dot3adAggPortAlgorithm?
This object identifies which algorithm the switch uses to distribute outgoing network traffic across multiple ports grouped together as a link aggregation. The algorithm determines how frames get assigned to different ports within the aggregation to balance load and maximize throughput. An operator would check this setting when configuring port aggregation to ensure traffic is being distributed according to their network design.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.2.840.10006.300.43.1.1.3.1.21 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> IEEE8023-LAG-MIB::dot3adAggPortAlgorithm
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.2.840.10006.300.43.1.1.3.1.21.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> IEEE8023-LAG-MIB::dot3adAggPortAlgorithm.1
Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):
snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.2.840.10006.300.43.1.1.3.1.21.1 s <value>
SNMPv3 example:
snmpget -v3 -l authPriv -u snmpv3-user -a SHA -A "AuthPassword1" -x AES -X "PrivPassword1" <target> dot3adAggPortAlgorithm.1
