deviceDate
Module: CTRON-COMMON-MIB
OID (symbolic): CTRON-COMMON-MIB::deviceDate
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.52.1.1.1.5
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: DisplayString
Access: read-write
Description: The current date, as measured by the device. The representation shall use the standard MMDDYYYY format.
What is deviceDate?
This read-write DisplayString, fixed at 8 characters in MMDDYYYY format, holds the current date as measured by the device's internal clock. An administrator sets or checks this to ensure the device's date is accurate, which matters for correctly timestamping logs and scheduled events. For example, after a power outage resets the device's clock, the admin writes the correct current date in MMDDYYYY format to this object to restore accurate timestamping.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.52.1.1.1.5 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> CTRON-COMMON-MIB::deviceDate
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.52.1.1.1.5.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> CTRON-COMMON-MIB::deviceDate.1
Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):
snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.52.1.1.1.5.1 s <value>
