swMSTPStpForwardBPDU

Module: MSTP-MIB

OID (symbolic): MSTP-MIB::swMSTPStpForwardBPDU

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.171.12.15.1.8

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: The enabled/disabled status is used to forward BPDU to non stp port.

What is swMSTPStpForwardBPDU?

This read-write value enables or disables forwarding of BPDUs out non-STP ports on the bridge. Admins enable this when non-STP-participating ports still need to relay BPDU frames through to downstream STP-aware devices.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.171.12.15.1.8
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> MSTP-MIB::swMSTPStpForwardBPDU

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.171.12.15.1.8.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> MSTP-MIB::swMSTPStpForwardBPDU.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.171.12.15.1.8.1 i <value>
