Module: IEEE802dot11-MIB

OID (symbolic): IEEE802dot11-MIB::dot11MediumOccupancyLimit

OID (numeric): 1.2.840.10036.1.1.1.2

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: This attribute shall indicate the maximum amount of time, in TU, that a point coordinator may control the usage of the wireless medium without relinquishing control for long enough to allow at least one instance of DCF access to the medium. The default value of this attribute shall be 100, and the maximum value shall be 1000.

What is dot11MediumOccupancyLimit?

Sets the maximum time, in TU (time units), that a point coordinator may hold control of the wireless medium during contention-free periods before it must yield to normal DCF access; the standard default is 100 and the ceiling is 1000. Wireless engineers tune this on access points running PCF to keep legacy contention-based stations from being starved of airtime.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.2.840.10036.1.1.1.2
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> IEEE802dot11-MIB::dot11MediumOccupancyLimit

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.2.840.10036.1.1.1.2.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> IEEE802dot11-MIB::dot11MediumOccupancyLimit.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.2.840.10036.1.1.1.2.1 i <value>
