stnBgpRouteAttrMultiExitDisc

Module: STN-BGP-MIB

OID (symbolic): STN-BGP-MIB::stnBgpRouteAttrMultiExitDisc

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.3551.2.12.5.1.1.1.5

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Description: This metric is used to discriminate between multiple exit points to an adjacent autonomous system. A value of -1 indicates the absence of this attribute.

What is stnBgpRouteAttrMultiExitDisc?

This holds the Multi-Exit Discriminator (MED) value used to influence which of several exit points a neighboring AS should use to reach this network; -1 means the attribute is absent. Network admins tune MED values to steer inbound traffic toward a preferred link when peering with the same AS at multiple points. A lower MED value signals to the neighboring AS that this path is preferred over one advertised with a higher MED.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.3551.2.12.5.1.1.1.5
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> STN-BGP-MIB::stnBgpRouteAttrMultiExitDisc

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.3551.2.12.5.1.1.1.5.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> STN-BGP-MIB::stnBgpRouteAttrMultiExitDisc.1
