mSTPortPerMstPathCost

Module: PRVT-MST-MIB

OID (symbolic): PRVT-MST-MIB::mSTPortPerMstPathCost

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.738.1.5.107.1.4.2.1.4

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: The contribution of this port to the path cost of paths toward the spanning tree root that include this port. 802.1D-1990 recommends that the default value of this parameter be in inverse proportion to the speed of the attached LAN.

What is mSTPortPerMstPathCost?

This read-write INTEGER (1-200000000) sets a port's contribution to the total path cost toward the root for one specific MST instance; 802.1D recommends the default be set in inverse proportion to the port's link speed, so an admin might raise it to steer traffic away from a slower or less-preferred link.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.738.1.5.107.1.4.2.1.4
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> PRVT-MST-MIB::mSTPortPerMstPathCost

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.738.1.5.107.1.4.2.1.4.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> PRVT-MST-MIB::mSTPortPerMstPathCost.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.738.1.5.107.1.4.2.1.4.1 i <value>
