mscHtdsPlcHoldingPriority

Module: Nortel-MsCarrier-MscPassport-HdlcTransparentMIB

OID (symbolic): Nortel-MsCarrier-MscPassport-HdlcTransparentMIB::mscHtdsPlcHoldingPriority

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.562.36.2.1.82.3.10.1.4

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Unsigned32

Access: read-write

Description: This attribute gives the priority that a path holds once it is established. Zero(0) is the highest priority and four(4) is the lowest. A path's holdingPriority determines its likelihood of being bumped by a new path to acquire its bandwidth. The setupPriority, a complementary attribute, indicates the priority of a path at establishment time. A new path can bump an existing path if the new path's setupPriority is higher (numerically less) than the existing path's holdingPriority.

What is mscHtdsPlcHoldingPriority?

The priority (0=highest to 4=lowest, default 2) this path holds once established, determining how likely it is to be bumped by a new, higher-setupPriority connection needing its bandwidth. Set this alongside mscHtdsPlcSetupPriority to control both how eagerly a path is established and how tightly it holds onto its bandwidth afterward.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.562.36.2.1.82.3.10.1.4
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> Nortel-MsCarrier-MscPassport-HdlcTransparentMIB::mscHtdsPlcHoldingPriority

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.562.36.2.1.82.3.10.1.4.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> Nortel-MsCarrier-MscPassport-HdlcTransparentMIB::mscHtdsPlcHoldingPriority.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.562.36.2.1.82.3.10.1.4.1 i <value>
