What is bgpPeerDesc?

This value holds a human-readable text description of a BGP peer or neighbor, letting an administrator label the relationship in plain language rather than relying solely on the peer's IP address or ASN. Admins set this so anyone browsing the BGP peer table can quickly understand who or what a given peering session connects to. For example, this object might read "Transit-Provider-A-Primary" to describe a peer session used as the primary transit uplink.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.40310.4.3.1.1.26
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> CUMULUS-BGPUN-MIB::bgpPeerDesc

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.40310.4.3.1.1.26.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> CUMULUS-BGPUN-MIB::bgpPeerDesc.1

SNMPv3 example:

snmpget -v3 -l authPriv -u snmpv3-user -a SHA -A "AuthPassword1" -x AES -X "PrivPassword1" <target> bgpPeerDesc.1
