backupxConfigBackupType

Module: XYLAN-BACKUP-MIB

OID (symbolic): XYLAN-BACKUP-MIB::backupxConfigBackupType

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.800.2.16.1.1.1.8

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: This object controls the type of entity to use to back up the primary entity in case of failure.

What is backupxConfigBackupType?

This read-write object specifies the type of entity used to back up the primary in case of failure; the only defined value is pppPeer(1), meaning the backup is a PPP peer. It parallels backupxConfigPrimaryType but for the backup side, determining how backupxConfigBackupIndex1 through 3 should be interpreted. Since pppPeer(1) is currently the only supported backup type, an admin configuring any backup service must set backupxConfigBackupType to pppPeer(1) and then identify that peer via backupxConfigBackupIndex1.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.800.2.16.1.1.1.8
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> XYLAN-BACKUP-MIB::backupxConfigBackupType

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.800.2.16.1.1.1.8.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> XYLAN-BACKUP-MIB::backupxConfigBackupType.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.800.2.16.1.1.1.8.1 i <value>
