swLoopDetectInterval
Module: LOOPBACK-DETECT-MIB
OID (symbolic): LOOPBACK-DETECT-MIB::swLoopDetectInterval
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.171.12.41.1.2
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: INTEGER
Access: read-write
Description: This object indicates the interval value. The range is from 1 to 32767 seconds.
What is swLoopDetectInterval?
This value sets how often, in seconds from 1 to 32767, the switch sends loopback detection probe packets to check for cabling loops. Admins tune it to balance faster loop detection against the extra control-plane traffic generated by frequent probes. Setting it to a low value like 5 would detect a new loop within seconds, at the cost of more frequent probe transmissions.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.171.12.41.1.2 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> LOOPBACK-DETECT-MIB::swLoopDetectInterval
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.171.12.41.1.2.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> LOOPBACK-DETECT-MIB::swLoopDetectInterval.1
Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):
snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.171.12.41.1.2.1 i <value>
SNMPv3 example:
snmpget -v3 -l authPriv -u snmpv3-user -a SHA -A "AuthPassword1" -x AES -X "PrivPassword1" <target> swLoopDetectInterval.1
