usrDnsTimeout
Module: USR-DNS-MIB
OID (symbolic): USR-DNS-MIB::usrDnsTimeout
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.429.4.17.6
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: Integer32
Access: read-write
Description: The number of seconds DNS will wait for a response from a name server before determining it is not coming. The minimum timeout value is 5 seconds. The maximum timeout value is twice the Internet MSL (Maximum Segment Lifetime) + the minimum = 245 secs.
What is usrDnsTimeout?
Sets how many seconds (5-245) DNS waits for a response from a name server before deciding it isn't coming. An admin lowers this to fail over to a secondary server faster, or raises it for a high-latency WAN link to the DNS server.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.429.4.17.6 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> USR-DNS-MIB::usrDnsTimeout
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.429.4.17.6.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> USR-DNS-MIB::usrDnsTimeout.1
Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):
snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.429.4.17.6.1 i <value>
