subscriber host connectivity verification packets.
source-mac ieee-address — Specifies
the source MAC address to be used for generation of
subscriber host connectivity verification packets.

sources should be verified. The actual rate is then dependent on number of known hosts and
interval.
Values 1 — 6000
Note that a zero value can be used by the SNMP agent to disable host-connectivity-
verify.
action {remove | alarm} — Defines the action taken on a subscriber host connectivity verification
failure for a given host. The remove keyword raises an alarm and removes dhcp-state and
releases all allocated resources (queues, table entries, etc.). DHCP release will be signaled to
corresponding DHCP server. Static host will be never removed. The alarm keyword raises an
alarm indicating that the host is disconnected.
