dcmDistance
Module: SO-MUX-MIB
OID (symbolic): SO-MUX-MIB::dcmDistance
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.51628.1.1
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: Integer32
Access: read-only
Description: The current dispersion in kilometers.
What is dcmDistance?
This object reports the current chromatic dispersion compensation distance, in kilometers, associated with this EDFA mux's dispersion compensation module (DCM). Admins use it to confirm the DCM is configured to compensate for the correct span length of fiber, since mismatched dispersion compensation can degrade signal quality on long optical links. A value of 80 would indicate the dispersion compensation module is set to correct for approximately 80 kilometers of fiber span.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.51628.1.1 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> SO-MUX-MIB::dcmDistance
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.51628.1.1.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> SO-MUX-MIB::dcmDistance.1
SNMPv3 example:
snmpget -v3 -l authPriv -u snmpv3-user -a SHA -A "AuthPassword1" -x AES -X "PrivPassword1" <target> dcmDistance.1
