Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.4.7.1.1.2 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> BSDUNIX-MIB::userPasswd
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.4.7.1.1.2.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> BSDUNIX-MIB::userPasswd.1
Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):
snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.4.7.1.1.2.1 s <value>
