cewEntRoleDescription
Module: CISCO-ENERGYWISE-MIB
OID (symbolic): CISCO-ENERGYWISE-MIB::cewEntRoleDescription
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.683.1.6.1.5
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: SnmpAdminString
Access: read-write
Description: This object specifies an administratively assigned name to indicate the purpose a Cisco EnergyWise entity serves in the network.
For example, we can have switches deployed to a lobby with cewEntName as 'LL', cewEntRoleDescription as 'LobbySwitch'.
This object specifies a null string if no role description is configured.
If write access is implemented for an instance of cewEntRoleDescription, and a value is written into the instance, the agent must retain the supplied value in the cewEntRoleDescription instance associated with the same physical entity for as long as that entity remains instantiated. This includes instantiations across all re- initializations/reboots of the network management system, including those which result in a change of the physical entity's entPhysicalIndex value.
What is cewEntRoleDescription?
Configures (and reports) a descriptive label indicating the functional role the entity plays in the network, such as 'LobbySwitch', settable via SNMP write.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.683.1.6.1.5 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> CISCO-ENERGYWISE-MIB::cewEntRoleDescription
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.683.1.6.1.5.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> CISCO-ENERGYWISE-MIB::cewEntRoleDescription.1
