Description: Use this field to select the method of calculating the value to be compared against the thresholds.

When you set this to 'absoluteValue', the variable you specified is compared directly with the alarm thresholds at the end of each monitoring interval.

When you set this to 'changeInValue', the change in the value of the variable over the interval is compared with the thresholds. This is useful for detecting changes in rates of activity.

You may not modify this field once the alarm is completed (see alarm status field).

What is mbAlarmSampleType?

Chooses whether the alarm compares the variable's raw value against thresholds each interval ('absoluteValue') or compares the change in value over the interval ('changeInValue'), the latter being useful for spotting rate-of-activity shifts rather than absolute levels.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.33.31.2.1.9
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> ITOUCH-RMON-MIB::mbAlarmSampleType

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.33.31.2.1.9.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> ITOUCH-RMON-MIB::mbAlarmSampleType.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.33.31.2.1.9.1 i <value>
