phivPathSelection
Module: ITOUCH-DECNET-MIB
OID (symbolic): ITOUCH-DECNET-MIB::phivPathSelection
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.33.14.2.1.1
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: INTEGER
Access: read-write
Description: The algorithm used to balance traffic between equal next hop paths. 'roundRobin' selects the next hop using a round robin algorithm for each hop. 'samePath' selects the next hop guaranteeing that all packets with the same source/destination pair will always use the same next hop.
What is phivPathSelection?
Controls how the router balances DECnet traffic across multiple equal-cost next-hop paths: 'roundRobin' rotates hops for each packet, while 'samePath' pins a given source/destination pair to always use the same next hop. An admin would choose 'samePath' if out-of-order delivery from load balancing was causing problems for an application.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.33.14.2.1.1 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> ITOUCH-DECNET-MIB::phivPathSelection
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.33.14.2.1.1.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> ITOUCH-DECNET-MIB::phivPathSelection.1
Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):
snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.33.14.2.1.1.1 i <value>
