ipv6RoutePolicy

Module: IPV6-MIB

OID (symbolic): IPV6-MIB::ipv6RoutePolicy

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.55.1.11.1.8

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Integer32

Access: read-only

Description: The general set of conditions that would cause the selection of one multipath route (set of next hops for a given destination) is referred to as 'policy'. Unless the mechanism indicated by ipv6RouteProtocol specified otherwise, the policy specifier is the 8-bit Traffic Class field of the IPv6 packet header that is zero extended at the left to a 32-bit value.

Protocols defining 'policy' otherwise must either define a set of values which are valid for this object or must implement an integer- instanced policy table for which this object's value acts as an index.

This object is obsoleted by IP-FORWARD-MIB::inetCidrRoutePolicy.

What is ipv6RoutePolicy?

Held the 'policy' value used to pick among multiple routes to the same destination — by default the IPv6 Traffic Class field zero-extended to 32 bits, unless the route's protocol defines policy differently. Obsolete, replaced by IP-FORWARD-MIB::inetCidrRoutePolicy.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.55.1.11.1.8
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> IPV6-MIB::ipv6RoutePolicy

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.55.1.11.1.8.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> IPV6-MIB::ipv6RoutePolicy.1
