alarmClearEngineAddress

Module: ALARM-MIB

OID (symbolic): ALARM-MIB::alarmClearEngineAddress

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.118.1.3.2.1.5

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: InetAddress

Access: read-only

Description: The Address of the SNMP engine on which the alarm was occurring. This is used to identify the source of an SNMPv1

trap, since an alarmActiveEngineId cannot be extracted from the SNMPv1 trap PDU.

This object MUST always be instantiated, even if the list can contain alarms from only one engine.

What is alarmClearEngineAddress?

Reports the network address of the SNMP engine on which a cleared alarm was occurring, which is especially important for SNMPv1 traps where an engine ID cannot be extracted from the PDU. This field is always instantiated to ensure the alarm source can be identified regardless of SNMP version.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.118.1.3.2.1.5
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> ALARM-MIB::alarmClearEngineAddress

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.118.1.3.2.1.5.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> ALARM-MIB::alarmClearEngineAddress.1
