slSonetCompression

Module: SL-SONET-MIB

OID (symbolic): SL-SONET-MIB::slSonetCompression

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.4515.1.6.1.1.1.9

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: This object applies only for trunk ports. It specifies if the packets should be compressed. 0 - Means no POS compression, 1 - Means POS compression with CRC-32. 2 - Means POS compression with CRC-16. Note that the two connected trunks should be configured to the same value. Note also that the BW calculation of the OC-n should be changed according to this value.

What is slSonetCompression?

This object enables or configures the type of compression used on SONET trunk ports, choosing between no compression, CRC-32 compression, or CRC-16 compression for Packet-over-SONET (POS) traffic. Both connected trunks must use matching compression settings for proper operation. Network engineers configure this to optimize bandwidth utilization while maintaining error detection capabilities.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.4515.1.6.1.1.1.9
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> SL-SONET-MIB::slSonetCompression

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.4515.1.6.1.1.1.9.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> SL-SONET-MIB::slSonetCompression.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.4515.1.6.1.1.1.9.1 i <value>
