echoTestPeriod

Module: PROBE-MIB

OID (symbolic): PROBE-MIB::echoTestPeriod

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.3.7.6.1.6.3

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: This object indicates how long to wait (in seconds) after completion of a pass through the echoTestPeriodic table before starting a new pass. Whenever this object is set to zero(0), the periodic echo list is disabled. Whenever it is set to a non-zero value, an initial round of tests will be scheduled immediately, and subsequent rounds will start after the specified period. Note that a monitor may impose a lower bound on this object if its timing facilities are limited.

What is echoTestPeriod?

Sets how long, in seconds, to wait after finishing one pass through the periodic echo test table before starting the next pass; setting it to 0 (the default) disables periodic testing entirely, while any nonzero value starts a round immediately and repeats at that interval thereafter.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.3.7.6.1.6.3
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> PROBE-MIB::echoTestPeriod

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.3.7.6.1.6.3.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> PROBE-MIB::echoTestPeriod.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.3.7.6.1.6.3.1 i <value>
