Module: TPLINK-SPANNING-TREE-MIB

OID (symbolic): TPLINK-SPANNING-TREE-MIB::tpStpPortExPathCost

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.11863.6.21.1.2.1.1.4

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: ExPath Cost is used to choose the path and calculate the path costs of ports in different MST regions. It is an important criterion on determining the root port. The lower value has the higher priority. automatic when value is zero. Make sure that Path Cost ranges from 0 to 2000000.

What is tpStpPortExPathCost?

This port's external path cost (0-2000000) used to calculate the cost of paths crossing into a different MST region; a value of 0 lets the switch calculate the cost automatically instead of using a fixed value.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.11863.6.21.1.2.1.1.4
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> TPLINK-SPANNING-TREE-MIB::tpStpPortExPathCost

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.11863.6.21.1.2.1.1.4.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> TPLINK-SPANNING-TREE-MIB::tpStpPortExPathCost.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.11863.6.21.1.2.1.1.4.1 i <value>
