nbsPrbsCheckAction

Module: NBS-PRBS-MIB

OID (symbolic): NBS-PRBS-MIB::nbsPrbsCheckAction

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.629.212.3.2.1.6

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: Used to initiate and terminate pattern checking from this port.

If pattern checking is not available from this port, Agent will report notSupported(1). Any SET attempts will be rejected.

To check a bitstream, user should SET this object to start(3).

To terminate checking, user should SET this object to stop(2).

When read, Agent should report the value last SET. Agent may report stop(2) after a system reboot, or after it halts pattern checking because the time specified in nbsPrbsCheckDuration elapsed.

What is nbsPrbsCheckAction?

The control an admin sets to start(3) or stop(2) PRBS bitstream checking on this port; it always reads back the last value set (or reverts to stop after a reboot or when nbsPrbsCheckDuration elapses), and reads as notSupported(1) with sets rejected on ports that can't check patterns.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.629.212.3.2.1.6
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> NBS-PRBS-MIB::nbsPrbsCheckAction

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.629.212.3.2.1.6.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> NBS-PRBS-MIB::nbsPrbsCheckAction.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.629.212.3.2.1.6.1 i <value>

SNMPv3 example:

snmpget -v3 -l authPriv -u snmpv3-user -a SHA -A "AuthPassword1" -x AES -X "PrivPassword1" <target> nbsPrbsCheckAction.1
