What is starttimestring?

This OID returns a human-readable string showing the time of day when the agent process started, complementing the date information for complete startup context. Combined with the start date, this helps operators identify whether restarts occurred during planned maintenance or unexpected events. A concrete example value could be '14:30:45 UTC' or '02:30:45 PM' representing the wall-clock time of agent startup.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.42.2.12.2.2.30.4.11
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> AGENT-STATS-MIB2::starttimestring

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.42.2.12.2.2.30.4.11.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> AGENT-STATS-MIB2::starttimestring.1

SNMPv3 example:

snmpget -v3 -l authPriv -u snmpv3-user -a SHA -A "AuthPassword1" -x AES -X "PrivPassword1" <target> starttimestring.1
