usrPPPoEMaxSessionsPerHost
Module: USR-PPPOE-MIB
OID (symbolic): USR-PPPOE-MIB::usrPPPoEMaxSessionsPerHost
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.429.4.79.16
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: Integer32
Access: read-write
Description: The number of maximum allowed PPPoE sessions to a peer
What is usrPPPoEMaxSessionsPerHost?
This read-write value (1-450) sets the maximum number of concurrent PPPoE sessions allowed from a single peer (subscriber host). An admin lowers this from the maximum to prevent a single misbehaving or compromised subscriber device from opening excessive sessions and consuming a disproportionate share of the concentrator's session capacity. For example, setting usrPPPoEMaxSessionsPerHost to 1 enforces that each subscriber MAC address can only maintain a single PPPoE session at a time.
