ipfCommand
Module: IPF-MIB
OID (symbolic): IPF-MIB::ipfCommand
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.1055.5.4
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: INTEGER
Access: read-write
Description: UPDATE - the rule set is updated. Use the new rules. If there are any parse errors, the UPDATE operation would fail. If there are no parse errors, the parse buffer is emptied. ie. parserRules (see below) will be an empty table. DISABLE - disable all IP-Filter & NAT activities ENABLE - enable IP-Filter & NAT activities with the current set of rules. DELETE - discard the set of rules from the parse buffer. ie. parserRules (see below) will be an empty table. CLEAR - discard the loaded rules. ie. the ipfCurrRules and natCurrRules (see below) will be empty tables.
NOTE: A get or get next operation is meaningless on this variable and hence the value returned is always 42.
What is ipfCommand?
A write-only control that drives the IPF rule lifecycle: update(1) applies the parsed rule set (failing on any parse error), disable(2)/enable(3) turn IP-Filter and NAT on or off, delete(4) discards the parse buffer, and clear(5) wipes the currently loaded rules; reads of this object are meaningless and always return 42.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.1055.5.4 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> IPF-MIB::ipfCommand
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.1055.5.4.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> IPF-MIB::ipfCommand.1
Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):
snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.1055.5.4.1 i <value>
