srtbExplorerTypeToSend

Module: XYLAN-SRTB-MIB

OID (symbolic): XYLAN-SRTB-MIB::srtbExplorerTypeToSend

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.800.2.24.1.1.1.4

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: The value of this object specifies which explorer type to send when unknown destination, multicast or broadcast frame is forwarded from Ethernet to Token Ring. If notAvailable is returned (from GET), meaning SRTB is OFF, hence not available for users to configure.

What is srtbExplorerTypeToSend?

This read-write object selects which explorer frame type, typeARE(1) (All-Routes Explorer) or typeSTE(2) (Spanning-Tree Explorer), is sent when an unknown-destination, multicast, or broadcast frame is forwarded from Ethernet to Token Ring; a returned value of notAvailable(3) means SRTB is off. An admin sets this to match the explorer-frame convention used elsewhere in the Token Ring source-route bridged network, since ARE and STE affect how the frame is routed and replicated. Setting it to typeSTE(2) means unknown-destination Ethernet frames forwarded to Token Ring use Spanning-Tree Explorer frames rather than flooding as All-Routes Explorers.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.800.2.24.1.1.1.4
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> XYLAN-SRTB-MIB::srtbExplorerTypeToSend

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.800.2.24.1.1.1.4.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> XYLAN-SRTB-MIB::srtbExplorerTypeToSend.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.800.2.24.1.1.1.4.1 i <value>

SNMPv3 example:

snmpget -v3 -l authPriv -u snmpv3-user -a SHA -A "AuthPassword1" -x AES -X "PrivPassword1" <target> srtbExplorerTypeToSend.1
