Module: Nortel-MsCarrier-MscPassport-NetSentryMIB
OID (symbolic): Nortel-MsCarrier-MscPassport-NetSentryMIB::mscVrNsDropConditions
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.562.36.2.1.100.4.100.1.1
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: OCTET STRING
Access: read-write
Description: This attribute controls under what circumstances NetSentry drops packets. It is possible for NetSentry to drop packets when: There is no memory to contain statistics for this packet (statsNoMem), it is for whatever reason impossible to clone, copy, or log a copy of the packet via the clone_to copy_to or log_to actions respectively (cantCloneTo, cantCopyTo and cantLogTo), and if the packet encounters a filter which is provisioned at a filter point within a protocol component, but not defined in any of the files defined by File components within NetSentry (this is a Null filter).
Description of bits: statsNoMem(0) cantCloneTo(1) cantLogTo(2) cantCopyTo(3) cantMacCloneTo(4) nullFilter(5)
What is mscVrNsDropConditions?
A bitmask controlling exactly which failure conditions cause NetSentry to drop a packet outright, such as no memory for stats (statsNoMem), an inability to clone/copy/log the packet, or hitting an undefined ('Null') filter. An admin tuning NetSentry's fail-safe behavior would set specific bits here, e.g. enabling nullFilter so packets hitting an unconfigured filter point are dropped rather than passed through unfiltered.
