Modifying MIB Variables
Fast Network 100 User Guide Page 3-17
The two Management Information Base (MIB) variables for configuring
multicast storm protection are:
• sfifTxStormCnt – specifies the maximum number of multicasts that
can be broadcast within the given time.
• sfiTxStormTime – specifies the period of time that the maximum
number of multicasts can be broadcasted.
Refer to the Fast Network 100 MIB Reference Guide for a complete
listing and description of MIB variables.
3.14 MODIFYING MIB VARIABLES
Specific instructions for controlling FN100 operations, modifying
parameters, and so on, depend on the NMS you are using. This manual
provides instructions for using LCM commands. However, LCM
commands do not exist for all configuration options. You may need to
modify your configuration using an NMS.
This section provides several common MIB variables you may want to
change. Refer to the Fast Network 100 MIB Reference Guide for a
complete listing and description of MIB variables.
Each variable is first described in words, and is then identified in MIB
form, for example,
sfadminGetPass - {sfadmin 3}. The Display String
line shows the range of values that can be used for the given parameter. In
each case, the DisplayString is a string of ASCII characters.
3.14.1 System Contact
The system contact parameter identifies the contact person who is
responsible for operating the FN100. Typically, this parameter includes
the person’s name, company or division name, and telephone number.
sysContact - {system 4}
DisplayString (SIZE (0..255))
