What is mgSysName?

This read-write string holds an administratively assigned name for the managed node, conventionally its fully-qualified domain name. Admins set it to give the device a consistent, recognizable identity across their monitoring and inventory systems. An admin might set this to 'mux-gateway-01.example.com' to match the device's DNS name.
