What is pvstpPortPathCost?

Sets this port's contribution to the spanning tree path cost for its VLAN, ranging from 1 to 65535; a value of 0 tells the switch to calculate the cost automatically based on link speed. An admin manually raises this to make a port a less-preferred path, steering traffic toward another link.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.343.2.11.1.2.26.2.1.6
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> Intel-6000-Switch-MIB::pvstpPortPathCost

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.343.2.11.1.2.26.2.1.6.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> Intel-6000-Switch-MIB::pvstpPortPathCost.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.343.2.11.1.2.26.2.1.6.1 i <value>
