Module: IEEE802dot11-MIB
OID (symbolic): IEEE802dot11-MIB::dot11EDCATableMSDULifetime
OID (numeric): 1.2.840.10036.2.4.1.6
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: INTEGER
Access: read-write
Description: This attribute shall specify (in TUs) the maximum duration an MSDU, for a given AC, would be retained by the MAC before it is discarded. The default value for this parameter shall be 500.
What is dot11EDCATableMSDULifetime?
This object defines the maximum time window (in time units) that the 802.11 MAC layer retains an MSDU (MAC Service Data Unit) for a given access category before discarding it. An operator adjusts this value (0 to 500 TUs, default 500) to balance application responsiveness with retransmission overhead. Shorter lifetimes reduce stale-frame transmission but may drop legitimate time-sensitive data.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.2.840.10036.2.4.1.6 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> IEEE802dot11-MIB::dot11EDCATableMSDULifetime
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.2.840.10036.2.4.1.6.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> IEEE802dot11-MIB::dot11EDCATableMSDULifetime.1
Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):
snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.2.840.10036.2.4.1.6.1 i <value>
