Description: The time between retransmissions of ARP requests to a neighbor when resolving the address or when probing the reachability of a neighbor.

What is ipv4InterfaceRetransmitTime?

This object defines the time interval (in milliseconds) between repeated ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) request attempts when trying to resolve a neighbor's IP address or verify reachability. It controls how aggressively the system retries address lookups. Network administrators tune this parameter to optimize host discovery behavior on slow or unreliable links.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.4.28.1.4
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> IP-MIB::ipv4InterfaceRetransmitTime

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.4.28.1.4.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> IP-MIB::ipv4InterfaceRetransmitTime.1
