apathTrafficIdleTimer

Module: TIGER

OID (symbolic): TIGER::apathTrafficIdleTimer

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.1978.2.1.6.2.1.7

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: default=15 A non-zero value indicates amount of time that has to pass with no user traffic being sent before this path is declared idle. The path will only be re-connected on user traffic. If the value is zero, then no timming will occur and the path will never be automatically disconnected.

This is useful for dial-up connections for 'type A' connections, but is useless for X2X traffic which won't initiate traffic unless the path is already up. UNITS: seconds

What is apathTrafficIdleTimer?

This read-write value, in seconds from 0 to 100000, sets how long the path can go without user traffic before it is declared idle and disconnected; it will only reconnect once new user traffic appears. A value of zero disables this idle-based disconnection entirely, so the path never times out. It defaults to 15 seconds and is mainly useful for dial-up type-A connections, since X2X traffic won't generate traffic on its own to trigger reconnection.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.1978.2.1.6.2.1.7
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> TIGER::apathTrafficIdleTimer

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.1978.2.1.6.2.1.7.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> TIGER::apathTrafficIdleTimer.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.1978.2.1.6.2.1.7.1 i <value>

SNMPv3 example:

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