ipfixMeteringProcessCacheIdleTimeout

Module: IPFIX-MIB

OID (symbolic): IPFIX-MIB::ipfixMeteringProcessCacheIdleTimeout

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.193.1.1.5.1.4

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Unsigned32

Access: read-only

Description: On the Exporter, this object contains the time after which a Flow is expired (and a Data Record for the Template is sent) when no packets matching this Flow are received by the Metering Process for the given number of seconds. If this value is zero, the Flow is expired immediately; i.e., a Data Record is sent for every packet received by the Metering Process.

What is ipfixMeteringProcessCacheIdleTimeout?

Sets how many seconds of no matching traffic must pass before a flow is expired and exported from the Exporter's cache; a value of 0 means every packet is exported as its own flow immediately, which is rarely what an admin wants in production.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.193.1.1.5.1.4
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> IPFIX-MIB::ipfixMeteringProcessCacheIdleTimeout

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.193.1.1.5.1.4.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> IPFIX-MIB::ipfixMeteringProcessCacheIdleTimeout.1
