alarmClearContextName
Module: ALARM-MIB
OID (symbolic): ALARM-MIB::alarmClearContextName
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.118.1.3.2.1.6
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: SnmpAdminString
Access: read-only
Description:
The name of the SNMP MIB context from which the alarm came. For SNMPv1 traps this is the community string from the Trap. Note that care needs to be taken when selecting community strings to ensure that these can be represented as a well-formed SnmpAdminString. Community or Context names that are not well-formed SnmpAdminStrings will be mapped to zero length strings.
If the alarm's source SNMP engine is known not to support multiple contexts, this object is a zero length string.
What is alarmClearContextName?
This object stores the SNMP context name (or SNMPv1 community string) from which an alarm clear notification originated, allowing administrators to trace which administrative domain or managed network segment cleared a particular alarm. For SNMPv1 traps, the community string is mapped to this field if it is well-formed as an SNMP admin string; non-conforming strings map to an empty value. An alarm management system uses this field to audit which operator or autonomous system cleared an alarm and to enforce role-based access control policies.
