eHostTControl

Module: LANtern-MIB

OID (symbolic): LANtern-MIB::eHostTControl

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.23.2.1.2.29.1.12

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-only

Description: A collection of control bits and bit fields. These fields are grouped into one object to reduce network traffic (especially over the serial line) during startup. Writing to eHostControl may be used to pre-load entries into the table. This also has the side effect of inhibiting newHost traps for that host.

BITS MEANING 2^0-2^2 3-bit host timeout code 0 - host timeout disabled 1 - 1 minute 2 - 2 minutes 3 - 4 minutes 4 - 8 minutes 5 - 16 minutes 6 - 32 minutes 7 - 64 minutes 2^3 onSegmentBit: if set, host is on LANtern's segment. 2^7 inhibitPurgeBit: if set, inhibit purge for this host.

What is eHostTControl?

Same packed control bit-field as eHostControl (timeout code, onSegmentBit, inhibitPurgeBit), but exposed read-only here in eHostTTable rather than writable.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.23.2.1.2.29.1.12
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> LANtern-MIB::eHostTControl

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.23.2.1.2.29.1.12.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> LANtern-MIB::eHostTControl.1
