What is rlSshClientPasswordChangeNewPassword?
This read-write DisplayString(0..70) supplies the replacement credential to be set on the remote server via the SSH client's password-change feature, and per the description also always reads back as empty. Admins care because this is the actual new secret being pushed out, and its write-only behavior over SNMP prevents credential leakage through a simple read. For example, an admin sets this to a freshly generated strong password as part of a scripted quarterly credential-rotation job targeting several backup servers.
