What is dhcpPriority?

This field sets the priority level assigned to DHCP packets when they are forwarded to the switch's host CPU. Admins raise this on a busy DHCP relay or server switch to ensure lease requests are processed promptly rather than delayed behind other CPU traffic. For example, raising dhcpPriority from the default of 0 helps ensure DHCP requests get processed quickly during periods of high client turnover.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.11606.10.9.1.1.1.1.10
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> NMS-HAL-GLOBAL-MIB::dhcpPriority

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.11606.10.9.1.1.1.1.10.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> NMS-HAL-GLOBAL-MIB::dhcpPriority.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.11606.10.9.1.1.1.1.10.1 i <value>

SNMPv3 example:

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