Ping Control Table MIB

MIB objects

Objects and OID Access Description
pingCtlOwnerIndex

Syntax: SnmpAdminString

None This first index for the entry in pingCtlTable. The value is textually mapped to a securityName or groupName defined in VACM.
Note: The value is not validated against the SNMPv3 users configured in the device. It will be used for index purpose only.
pingCtlTestName

Syntax: SnmpAdminString

None The name of the ping test. This is locally unique, within the scope of a pingCtlOwnerIndex.
pingCtlTargetAddressType

Syntax: InetAddressType

Read-create Specifies the type of host address to be used at a remote host for performing a ping operation. The following values are supported.

  • ipv4(1)
  • ipv6(2)

Note: The default value is ipv4(1).
pingCtlTargetAddress

Syntax: InetAddressType

Read-create Specifies the host address to be used at a remote host for performing a ping operation. The host address type is determined by the value of the corresponding pingCtlTargetAddressType.
pingCtlDataSize

Syntax: Unsigned32 (0..65507)

Read-create Specifies the size of the data portion to be transmitted in a ping operation, in octets. The maximum allowed size depends on the size allowed for ICMP type ping.
Note: The maximum of packet size is 64 bytes.
pingCtlTimeOut

Syntax: Unsigned32 (seconds)

Read-create Specifies the time-out value, in seconds, for a remote ping operation.
Note: Default value is 3 seconds.
pingCtlProbeCount

Syntax: Unsigned32 (1..15)

Read-create Specifies the number of times to perform a ping operation at a remote host as part of a single ping test.
Note: Default value is 1.
pingCtlAdminStatus

Syntax: Integer

Read-create Reflects the desired state that a pingCtlEntry should be in.

enabled(1) - Attempt to activate the test as defined by this pingCtlEntry.

disabled(2) - Deactivate the test as defined by this pingCtlEntry.

Note: The default value is disabled(2).
pingCtlFrequency

Syntax: Unsigned32 (seconds)

Read-create The number of seconds to wait before repeating a ping test. After a single test is completed the number of seconds as defined by the value of pingCtlFrequency MUST elapse before the next ping test is started. A value of 0 for this object implies that the test as defined by the corresponding entry will not be repeated.
Note: Only Read-only access supported for this object. The object always returns value of 0. (ping test will never be repeated automatically).
Note: The default value is 0.
pingCtlMaxRows

Syntax: Unsigned32 (Rows)

Read-create The maximum number of corresponding entries allowed in the pingProbeHistoryTable.An implementation of this MIB will remove the oldest corresponding entry in the pingProbeHistoryTable to allow the addition of an new entry once the number of corresponding rows in the pingProbeHistoryTable reaches this value. Old entries are not removed when a new test is started. Entries are added to the pingProbeHistoryTable until pingCtlMaxRows is reached before entries begin to be removed. A value of 0 for this object disables creation of pingProbeHistoryTable entries.
Note: Only Read-only access supported for this object. This will be read-only object with fixed value of 50.
pingCtlStorageType

Syntax: StorageType

Read-create The storage type for this conceptual row. Conceptual rows having the value ’permanent’ need not allow write-access to any columnar objects in the row.
Note: Only Read-only access supported for this object. The object always returns value of volatile(2) (is lost upon reboot).
pingCtlTrapGeneration

Syntax:

{

probeFailure(0),

testFailure(1),

testCompletion(2)

}

Read-create This object determines when and whether to generate a notification for this entry.
pingCtlTrapProbeFailureFilter

Syntax: Unsigned32 (0..15)

Read-create The value of this object is used to determine when to generate a pingProbeFailed NOTIFICATION. pingProbeFailed NOTIFICATION is generated only when BIT probeFailure(0) of the object pingCtlTrapGeneration is set to 1 and the number of consecutive ping tests equal to the value of pingCtlTrapProbeFailureFilter fail.
pingCtlTrapTestFailureFilter

Syntax: Unsigned32 (0..15)

Read-create The value of this object is used to determine when to generate a pingTestFailed NOTIFICATION. pingTestFailed NOTIFICATION is generated only when BIT testFailure(1) of the object pingCtlTrapGeneration is set to 1 and the number of consecutive ping tests equal to the value of pingCtlTrapProbeFailureFilter fail.
pingCtlType

Syntax: OBJECT IDENTIFIER

Read-create Used either to report or to select the implementation method to be used for calculating a ping response time. The value of this object be selected from pingImplementationTypeDomains.
Note: Onlyread-only operation is supported with constant value pingIcmpEcho.
pingCtlDescr

Syntax: SnmpAdminString

Read-create To provide a descriptive name of the remote ping test.
Note: Maximum length supported is 255 characters.
pingCtlSourceAddressType

Syntax: InetAddressType

Read-create Specifies the type of the source address, pingCtlSourceAddress, to be used at a remote host when a ping operation is performed.
Note: Only ipv4 and ipv6 are supported.
pingCtlSourceAddress

Syntax: InetAddress

Read-create The specified IP address will be used as the source address in outgoing probe packets. If the IP address is not one of this machine’s interface addresses, an error is returned and nothing is sent.
Note: Host name is not supported. Specify ipv4 or ipv6 address.
pingCtlRowStatus

Syntax: RowStatus ( RFC 2579)

Read-create Allows entries to be created and deleted in the pingCtlTable. Deletion of an entry in this table results in the deletion of all corresponding (same pingCtlOwnerIndex and pingCtlTestName index values) pingResultsTable and pingProbeHistoryTable entries. A value must be specified for pingCtlTargetAddress prior to acceptance of a transition to active(1) state. Activation of a remote ping operation is controlled via pingCtlAdminStatus, not by changing this object's value to active(1). Transitions in and out of active(1) state are not allowed (except destroy(6)) while an entry's pingResultsOperStatus is active(1).
