dot11MaxTransmitMSDULifetime

Module: IEEE802dot11-MIB

OID (symbolic): IEEE802dot11-MIB::dot11MaxTransmitMSDULifetime

OID (numeric): 1.2.840.10036.2.1.1.6

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Unsigned32

Access: read-write

Description: The MaxTransmitMSDULifetime shall be the elapsed time in TU, after the initial transmission of an MSDU, after which further attempts to transmit the MSDU shall be terminated. The default value of this attribute shall be 512.

What is dot11MaxTransmitMSDULifetime?

Specifies, in TU, how long after initial transmission attempts an MSDU may continue to be retried before being discarded; the standard default is 512 TU. Admins tune this to balance delivery reliability against how long a stalled transmission is allowed to hold up the queue.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.2.840.10036.2.1.1.6
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> IEEE802dot11-MIB::dot11MaxTransmitMSDULifetime

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.2.840.10036.2.1.1.6.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> IEEE802dot11-MIB::dot11MaxTransmitMSDULifetime.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.2.840.10036.2.1.1.6.1 i <value>
