What is eqlifRole?
This is the desired traffic role assigned to the interface, either iSCSI-only or management-only, with iSCSI-only as the default. Admins use it to dedicate specific NICs purely to management traffic, keeping it separate from storage I/O for security or quality-of-service reasons. Setting the value to mgmt-only on a port means only management traffic like SNMP or web access is accepted there, with no iSCSI data allowed.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.12740.9.2.1.4 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> EQLIPADDR-MIB::eqlifRole
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.12740.9.2.1.4.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> EQLIPADDR-MIB::eqlifRole.1
Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):
snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.12740.9.2.1.4.1 i <value>
