nscHippiSonetDipSwitch

Module: NSCHippiSonet-MIB

OID (symbolic): NSCHippiSonet-MIB::nscHippiSonetDipSwitch

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.10.2.1.5.6.11

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: This is a software switch that functions much like a hardware dip switch. At the moment, the only use of this switch is to define whether the unit will act as the master clock for the sonet line. The bit values are defined as follows:

x x x x x x 1 - assert master clock x x x x x 1 x - not assigned x x x x 1 x x - not assigned x x x 1 x x x - not assigned x x 1 x x x x - not assigned x 1 x x x x x - not assigned 1 x x x x x x - not assigned

What is nscHippiSonetDipSwitch?

This read-write INTEGER is a software-implemented switch mirroring a hardware dip switch, where bit 0 set to 1 makes this unit assert itself as the master clock for the SONET line, with the remaining bits currently unassigned. An admin sets bit 0 on exactly one unit in a SONET link pair to designate which side provides the master clock.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.10.2.1.5.6.11
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> NSCHippiSonet-MIB::nscHippiSonetDipSwitch

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.10.2.1.5.6.11.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> NSCHippiSonet-MIB::nscHippiSonetDipSwitch.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.10.2.1.5.6.11.1 i <value>
