esysInitSwitch

Module: DEC-ElanConc

OID (symbolic): DEC-ElanConc::esysInitSwitch

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.36.2.18.1.2.1.2

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: This object allows the management action of initializing a device and forcing it to run selftest. It can also be used to reset all information added to the device's NVRAM. When read, it returns a value of other(1).

What is esysInitSwitch?

Lets management force the device to reset and run self-test, optionally clearing all settings stored in NVRAM back to factory defaults. Reading this object always returns other(1); an admin sets it to reset(2) for a normal restart or resetWithDefaults(3) to wipe configuration and start clean.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.36.2.18.1.2.1.2
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> DEC-ElanConc::esysInitSwitch

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.36.2.18.1.2.1.2.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> DEC-ElanConc::esysInitSwitch.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.36.2.18.1.2.1.2.1 i <value>
