What is swdisDesc?

This read-only OCTET STRING (0-32 bytes) describes the software set currently being downloaded, or the last one downloaded since the ES/1 booted. An administrator polls it to confirm the correct firmware image is actively in transit during a push. For example, the admin polls swdisDesc during a firmware push to confirm the correct image name is actively being received.
