Description: Specifies the type of the socket.
What is rlSocketType?
This read-only field reports whether a tracked device socket is stream-based (TCP-like), datagram-based (UDP-like), or raw. Admins care because it clarifies what kind of communication a given internal socket represents when troubleshooting the device's own network services. For example, seeing dgram for a socket tied to the SNMP trap service confirms it's using UDP as expected rather than a stream connection.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.6.1.101.85.2.1.2 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> CISCOSB-SOCKET-MIB::rlSocketType
Get a specific instance (index 1):
