What is sonusMgcpGatewayMsgPiggyBacking?

This turns on or off MGCP message piggybacking, where the gateway and call agent bundle multiple MGCP messages into a single UDP datagram instead of sending one per packet. It defaults to true (enabled). Disabling it can help interoperate with a call agent implementation that doesn't correctly parse piggybacked messages, at the cost of slightly higher packet overhead.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.2879.2.5.12.1.1.8
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> SONUS-MGCP-SERVICES-MIB::sonusMgcpGatewayMsgPiggyBacking

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.2879.2.5.12.1.1.8.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> SONUS-MGCP-SERVICES-MIB::sonusMgcpGatewayMsgPiggyBacking.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.2879.2.5.12.1.1.8.1 s <value>
