sysCommunityRo

Module: CISCO-STACK-MIB

OID (symbolic): CISCO-STACK-MIB::sysCommunityRo

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.5.1.1.23

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: DisplayString

Access: read-write

Description: When an SNMP message is received by this entity, the community string in the message is compared with this string third. If it matches, read-only access is granted to all items in the MIB except restricted items such as community strings. (Restricted items appear empty when read.) If it doesn't match, no access is granted, no response is sent back to the SNMP requester, and an SNMP is sent to the SNMP trap receivers if configured.

Note that this item is only accessible when using the community string defined in sysCommunityRwa.

What is sysCommunityRo?

Configures the SNMP community string checked third on incoming requests; a match grants read-only access to the MIB excluding certain restricted items.
