What is swPktStormCtrlthreshold?

This value sets the upper packet-rate threshold at which storm control activates on this port. Administrators tune it to define how much broadcast, multicast, or unicast traffic a port can carry before the switch considers it a storm and takes the configured action. For example, lowering this threshold makes the port more sensitive, triggering storm control sooner during a smaller traffic surge than the previous, higher setting would have allowed.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.171.12.25.3.1.1.2
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> PKT-STORM-CTRL-MIB::swPktStormCtrlthreshold

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.171.12.25.3.1.1.2.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> PKT-STORM-CTRL-MIB::swPktStormCtrlthreshold.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.171.12.25.3.1.1.2.1 i <value>
