takeEffectWhen OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX INTEGER {
atNextStatusPoll(0),
immediately(1)}
ACCESS read-write
STATUS mandatory
DESCRIPTION
"This MIB object specifies when the user specified
interface status will impact the Event System and the
Topology database. A value of atNextStatusPoll(0)
indicates that the value will be recorded in netmon's
process memory but will not impact the Event System and
Topology database until netmon is ready to perform the
next status poll on the specified interface.
A value of immediately(1) causes netmon to move the
specified node to the front of the status poll queue
so that the new status impacts the Event System and
Topology database immediately.
A set with a value greater than immediately(1) is interpretted
as a time to schedule a status poll for the selected interface.
The interface is rescheduled at a time equal to
now + <takeEffectWhen> in seconds. This is useful for automated
tests for eliminating the possibility that netmon will status
poll nodes that the test is working on before the test is set
up or in a different order then the test expects.
The structure of this MIB table suggests that the
<takeEffectWhen> value is stored in netmon on a per
interface basis. This could happen at a later date but
is initially implemented as a interface-independent
global. For reliable operation, this MIB variable
should be specified as a var-bind preceding objStatus
in a multi-var-bind SNMP Set request."
