etsysSshRandomSeed
Module: ENTERASYS-SSH-SERVER-MIB
OID (symbolic): ENTERASYS-SSH-SERVER-MIB::etsysSshRandomSeed
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.5624.1.2.26.1.3.4
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: OCTET STRING
Access: read-write
Description: Specifies optional additional entropy information that will be merged with the seed for the random number generator.
What is etsysSshRandomSeed?
This deprecated, read-write OCTET STRING (0..80 bytes) supplies optional extra entropy that gets merged into the seed used by the device's random number generator for SSH cryptographic operations. Admins with strict security requirements can write additional random bytes here to strengthen the entity's key generation against weak or predictable RNG seeding. For example, an admin might inject 80 bytes gathered from an external hardware entropy source before generating new SSH host keys.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.5624.1.2.26.1.3.4 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> ENTERASYS-SSH-SERVER-MIB::etsysSshRandomSeed
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.5624.1.2.26.1.3.4.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> ENTERASYS-SSH-SERVER-MIB::etsysSshRandomSeed.1
Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):
snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.5624.1.2.26.1.3.4.1 s <value>
