phivRouteMaxHops
Module: RFC1289-phivMIB
OID (symbolic): RFC1289-phivMIB::phivRouteMaxHops
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.18.5.10
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: INTEGER
Access: read-write
Description: This value represents the maximum number of routing hops allowable from the executor to any other reachable node within an area. (A hop is the logical distance over a circuit between two adjacent nodes.) This parameter defines the point where the executor node's Routing routing decision algorithm declares another node unreachable because the length of the shortest path between the two nodes is too long. For correct operation, this parameter must not be less than the network diameter. (The network diameter is the reachability distance between the two nodes of the network having the greatest reachability distance, where reachability distance is the length the shortest path between a given pair of nodes.)
What is phivRouteMaxHops?
This sets the ceiling on routing hops beyond which Routing declares a destination node within the area unreachable; it must be at least as large as the network's actual diameter (the longest shortest-path distance between any two nodes) or valid destinations will be unreachable. Admins raise it as the network topology grows larger.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.18.5.10 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> RFC1289-phivMIB::phivRouteMaxHops
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.18.5.10.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> RFC1289-phivMIB::phivRouteMaxHops.1
Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):
snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.18.5.10.1 i <value>
