hostTopNRequestedSize

Module: RFC1271-MIB

OID (symbolic): RFC1271-MIB::hostTopNRequestedSize

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.16.5.1.1.6

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: The maximum number of hosts requested for the top N table.

When this object is created or modified, the probe should set hostTopNGrantedSize as closely to this object as is possible for the particular probe implementation and available resources.

What is hostTopNRequestedSize?

Maximum number of hosts an admin requests be included in this Top-N report (default 10); the probe sets hostTopNGrantedSize as close to this as its resources allow.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.16.5.1.1.6
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> RFC1271-MIB::hostTopNRequestedSize

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.16.5.1.1.6.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> RFC1271-MIB::hostTopNRequestedSize.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.16.5.1.1.6.1 i <value>

SNMPv3 example:

snmpget -v3 -l authPriv -u snmpv3-user -a SHA -A "AuthPassword1" -x AES -X "PrivPassword1" <target> hostTopNRequestedSize.1
