wfOspfNewAseMetricSupport

Module: Wellfleet-OSPF-MIB

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

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.18.3.5.3.2.3.1.11

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: A parameter to specify if the new style ASE metric support is enabled. The new metric is not compatible with the pre-8.0 ASE metrics. The new metric support should be disabled if the router is to interoperate with routers running a pre-8.0 OSPF version.

What is wfOspfNewAseMetricSupport?

Controls whether this router uses the newer AS-External (ASE) route metric encoding introduced after OSPF software version 8.0, versus the older pre-8.0 encoding. It should be left disabled(2) if the router needs to interoperate with peers still running pre-8.0 OSPF code, since the two metric formats are not compatible. An admin upgrading a network in stages would keep this disabled until every router in the domain supports the new format.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.18.3.5.3.2.3.1.11
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> Wellfleet-OSPF-MIB::wfOspfNewAseMetricSupport

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.18.3.5.3.2.3.1.11.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> Wellfleet-OSPF-MIB::wfOspfNewAseMetricSupport.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.18.3.5.3.2.3.1.11.1 i <value>
