Module: CISCO-IF-EXTENSION-MIB

OID (symbolic): CISCO-IF-EXTENSION-MIB::cieIfContextName

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: OCTET STRING

Access: read-only

Description: The ContextName denotes the interface 'context' and is used to logically separate the MIB management. RFC 2571 and RFC 2737 describe this approach. When the agent supports a different SNMP context, as detailed in RFC 2571 and RFC 2737, for different interfaces, then the value of this object specifies the context name used for this interface.

What is cieIfContextName?

Identifies the SNMP context name used to logically separate management of this interface, per RFC 2571/2737, when the agent supports multiple SNMP contexts.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.276.1.1.2.1.8
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> CISCO-IF-EXTENSION-MIB::cieIfContextName

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.276.1.1.2.1.8.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> CISCO-IF-EXTENSION-MIB::cieIfContextName.1
