Configuring snAgentConfigModuleType to return original values
2
Brocade(config)# snmp-server legacy iftype
Syntax: [no] snmp-server legacy iftype
When this command is configured, the values gigabitEthernet (117) or fastEther(62) are returned
for ifType. If you issue a no snmp-server legacy iftype, ifType returns ethernetCsmacd(6) for
Ethernet interfaces.
Configuring snAgentConfigModuleType to return
original values
Enumeration values for snAgentConfigModuleType object in the SNMP MIB have been changed in
Release 04.0.00 for the Brocade NetIron XMR and Brocade MLX series to resolve enumeration
conflicts with other hardware modules in the Unified IP MIB. For example, an SNMP get of the
snAgentConfigModuleType of the 10x1GC module returned xmr20PortGigCopperSPModule(84).
Beginning with Release 04.0.00, snAgentConfigModuleType returns
fdryXmr20PortGigCopperSPModule(1084) for the 10x1GC module.
If you want snAgentConfigModuleType to return the enumeration values used before Release
04.0.00, configure the following command.
Brocade(config)# snmp-server legacy module-type
Syntax: [no] snmp-server legacy module-type
Refer to the Unified IP MIB Reference for details on snAgentConfigModuleType.
Preserving interface statistics in SNMP
By default, statistics for an interface is cleared from both the CLI and SNMP when the following
commands are entered on the CLI:
•
clear statistics ethernet slot-number/port-number
•
clear statistics slot-number/port-number
•
clear rmon statistics
•
clear statistics log slot-number/port-number
If you want to preserve interface statistics in SNMP when these commands are entered, configure
the following command at the Global level of the CLI.
Brocade(config)# snmp-server preserve-statistics
Syntax: [no] snmp-server preserve-statistics
For details on which interface statistics are preserved in SNMP, refer to the “Preserved interface
statistics for SNMP” section of the “Supported Standard MIBs” chapter in the Unified IP MIB
Reference.
