What is mgSysContact?

This read-write string holds the textual identification of the contact person responsible for this managed node, along with how to reach them. Admins set it so that anyone accessing the device's SNMP data, especially during an incident, knows who to contact about it. An admin might set this to 'NOC Team <noc@example.com>, +1-555-0100' so any engineer polling the device knows who to call.
