docsDevSwServerAddress

Module: EXP-DOCS-CABLE-DEVICE-MIB

OID (symbolic): EXP-DOCS-CABLE-DEVICE-MIB::docsDevSwServerAddress

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.3.83.1.3.6

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: IpV4orV6Address

Access: read-write

Description: The address of the TFTP server used for software upgrades.

If the TFTP server is unknown, return the zero length address string (See the TextualConvention). If docsDevSwServer is also implemented in this agent, this object is tied to it. A set of this object to an IPv4 address will result in the value of docsDevSwServer also being set to that address. If this object is set to an IPv6 address, docsDevSwServer is set to 0.0.0.0. If docsDevSwServer is set, this object is also set to that value. Note that if both are set in the same action, the order of which one sets the other is undefined - so both should be the same value.

What is docsDevSwServerAddress?

This is the writable IPv4 or IPv6 address of the TFTP server used for software upgrades; setting it to an IPv4 address also updates the legacy docsDevSwServer object, while an IPv6 address resets that legacy object to 0.0.0.0. Admins set this to point the device at a specific server before triggering a firmware upgrade.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.3.83.1.3.6
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> EXP-DOCS-CABLE-DEVICE-MIB::docsDevSwServerAddress

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.3.83.1.3.6.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> EXP-DOCS-CABLE-DEVICE-MIB::docsDevSwServerAddress.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.3.83.1.3.6.1 s <value>
