wfOspfIfMulticastForwarding

Module: Wellfleet-OSPF-MIB

OID (symbolic): Wellfleet-OSPF-MIB::wfOspfIfMulticastForwarding

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.18.3.5.3.2.3.5.1.30

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: The way multicasts should forwarded on this interface; not forwarded, forwarded as data link multicasts, or forwarded as data link uni- casts. Data link multicasting is not meaning- ful on point to point and NBMA interfaces, and setting ospfMulticastForwarding to 0 effective- ly disables all multicast forwarding.

What is wfOspfIfMulticastForwarding?

Controls how OSPF multicast traffic (Hellos and LSA floods) is sent out this interface: blocked(1) disables multicast forwarding entirely, multicast(2) uses data-link multicast addressing (the normal case on broadcast media), and unicast(3) sends a separate copy to each OSPF neighbor individually, typically required on point-to-point or NBMA media that can't do data-link multicast.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.18.3.5.3.2.3.5.1.30
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> Wellfleet-OSPF-MIB::wfOspfIfMulticastForwarding

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.18.3.5.3.2.3.5.1.30.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> Wellfleet-OSPF-MIB::wfOspfIfMulticastForwarding.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.18.3.5.3.2.3.5.1.30.1 i <value>
