swRIPngIfMetric
Module: RIPNG-MIB
OID (symbolic): RIPNG-MIB::swRIPngIfMetric
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.171.12.83.6.1.3
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: INTEGER
Access: read-write
Description: This object indicates the metric value of the interface.
What is swRIPngIfMetric?
This read-write value, from 1 to 15, sets the hop-count metric assigned to routes advertised out this RIPng interface, defaulting to 1. Admins raise it above the default to make a link look more expensive so RIPng prefers other paths, since RIPng treats a metric of 16 as unreachable. For example, setting swRIPngIfMetric to 5 on a slow backup WAN link makes RIPng favor a faster primary path with a lower metric whenever both are available.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.171.12.83.6.1.3 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> RIPNG-MIB::swRIPngIfMetric
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.171.12.83.6.1.3.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> RIPNG-MIB::swRIPngIfMetric.1
Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):
snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.171.12.83.6.1.3.1 i <value>
