usrDnsNumberRetries
Module: USR-DNS-MIB
OID (symbolic): USR-DNS-MIB::usrDnsNumberRetries
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.429.4.17.5
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: Integer32
Access: read-write
Description: The number of times DNS will attempt to resolve a name before determining it cannot be resolved.
What is usrDnsNumberRetries?
Sets how many times (1-5) DNS will retry a query before giving up on resolving a name. An admin raises this on a flaky network path to a name server to reduce spurious resolution failures.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.429.4.17.5 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> USR-DNS-MIB::usrDnsNumberRetries
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.429.4.17.5.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> USR-DNS-MIB::usrDnsNumberRetries.1
Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):
snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.429.4.17.5.1 i <value>
