mscApsTestDuration

Module: Nortel-MsCarrier-MscPassport-ApsMIB

OID (symbolic): Nortel-MsCarrier-MscPassport-ApsMIB::mscApsTestDuration

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.562.36.2.1.134.2.11.1.8

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Unsigned32

Access: read-write

Description: This attribute is the duration (in minutes) that test data will be transmitted. In the case of an externalLoop, this is the time that the loop is in effect. Note that dataStartDelay does not apply to the externalLoop.

What is mscApsTestDuration?

This read-write value (1-30240 minutes, default 1) sets how long test data will be transmitted (or, for externalLoop, how long the loop stays in effect). Set this to a long enough window to get a statistically meaningful bit error rate reading, especially for lower BER thresholds.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.562.36.2.1.134.2.11.1.8
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> Nortel-MsCarrier-MscPassport-ApsMIB::mscApsTestDuration

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.562.36.2.1.134.2.11.1.8.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> Nortel-MsCarrier-MscPassport-ApsMIB::mscApsTestDuration.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.562.36.2.1.134.2.11.1.8.1 i <value>
