What is ethPauseTime?

Sets, in units of 512ns, how long the interface asks the remote MAC to pause transmission for when it sends an 802.3x pause frame; this object is marked deprecated. Admins tune this on older equipment to control how aggressively flow control throttles an upstream sender during congestion.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.4515.1.1.1.1.1.9
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> SL-ETH-MIB::ethPauseTime

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.4515.1.1.1.1.1.9.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> SL-ETH-MIB::ethPauseTime.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.4515.1.1.1.1.1.9.1 i <value>

SNMPv3 example:

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