agentSwitchMulticastControlMode

Module: NETGEAR-SWITCHING-MIB

OID (symbolic): NETGEAR-SWITCHING-MIB::agentSwitchMulticastControlMode

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.4526.11.1.2.8.12.6

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: The switch config multicast allows you to enable or disable multicast storm recovery mode. When you specify Enable for multicast Storm Recovery and the multicast traffic on any Ethernet port exceeds the configured threshold, the switch blocks (discards) the multicast traffic.

What is agentSwitchMulticastControlMode?

This enable(1)/disable(2) flag (default disable) turns on multicast storm-control switch-wide: once enabled, any port whose multicast traffic exceeds its configured threshold has that multicast traffic discarded by the switch. An admin enables this to protect the switch's CPU and uplinks from a multicast flood.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.4526.11.1.2.8.12.6
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> NETGEAR-SWITCHING-MIB::agentSwitchMulticastControlMode

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.4526.11.1.2.8.12.6.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> NETGEAR-SWITCHING-MIB::agentSwitchMulticastControlMode.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.4526.11.1.2.8.12.6.1 i <value>
