ethGroupBackboneMode

Module: MODULES-MIB

OID (symbolic): MODULES-MIB::ethGroupBackboneMode

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.81.12.2.1.1.5

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Description: Value On of this attribute defines Backbone Mode of a sensor. Internal ports are enabled and the information path goes straightly from external port to internal bus, via corresponding internal port.

What is ethGroupBackboneMode?

Turns on Backbone Mode for the sensor/module, which enables its internal ports so traffic flows directly from the external port to the internal backplane bus through the matching internal port; an admin enables this (on(1)) to use the module as a straight backbone feed rather than a standard repeater segment.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.81.12.2.1.1.5
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> MODULES-MIB::ethGroupBackboneMode

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.81.12.2.1.1.5.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> MODULES-MIB::ethGroupBackboneMode.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.81.12.2.1.1.5.1 i <value>
