commun...@router[:[port][:[timeout][:[retries][:[backoff][:[version]][|
name]]]]]

timeout
        
        initial timeout for SNMP queries, in seconds (default: 2.0)
        
retries
        
        number of times a timed-out request will be retried (default: 5)
        
backoff
        
        factor by which the timeout is multiplied on every retry
        (default: 1.0).
        

But your problem might also be that your device doesn't have working
ifHCSpeed or ifSpeed indicators, in which case you will have to hack up
cfgmaker to add yet another exception to the growing list of broken snmp
implementations that are hard coded in cfgmaker.
