swPTPBoundaryPortAnnounceTimeout

Module: PTP-MIB

OID (symbolic): PTP-MIB::swPTPBoundaryPortAnnounceTimeout

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.171.12.94.1.2.2.1.2

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: This indicates the announce interval number that has to pass without receipt of an Announce message before the occurrence of the ANNOUNCE_RECEIPT_TIMEOUT_EXPIRES event.

This value multiplied by the announce interval value is equal to the interval time of the announce receipt timeout.

What is swPTPBoundaryPortAnnounceTimeout?

A read-write integer (2-10) setting how many Announce intervals can pass without a message before this boundary-clock port declares an ANNOUNCE_RECEIPT_TIMEOUT_EXPIRES event and starts a new master election. Admins lower this to make the port fail over to a new master faster after losing contact with the current one, at the risk of false failovers on a marginal link.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.171.12.94.1.2.2.1.2
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> PTP-MIB::swPTPBoundaryPortAnnounceTimeout

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.171.12.94.1.2.2.1.2.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> PTP-MIB::swPTPBoundaryPortAnnounceTimeout.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.171.12.94.1.2.2.1.2.1 i <value>
