Description: The MSTP external port path cost in CIST. The default value varies depending upon the link speed.

What is agentStpCstExtPortPathCost?

This sets the MSTP external port path cost (0-200,000,000) for a port in the CIST, the cost used when the path leaves the local MST region entirely; its default varies by link speed. An admin adjusts this to influence which port is preferred for traffic leaving the region toward the wider spanning-tree network (CST).

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.4526.11.1.2.15.11.1.12
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> NETGEAR-SWITCHING-MIB::agentStpCstExtPortPathCost

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.4526.11.1.2.15.11.1.12.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> NETGEAR-SWITCHING-MIB::agentStpCstExtPortPathCost.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.4526.11.1.2.15.11.1.12.1 i <value>
