Description: This field is usually empty. This field may be used to override the MAC address fixed in the factory setting. NOTE: This value is read only after a reset!
What is systemAlternativeMacAddress?
Normally empty; lets an admin override the factory-assigned MAC address burned into the device. The MIB notes this value only takes effect after a reset, so a SET here doesn't change the live MAC until the device is rebooted.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.3181.10.6.1.30.8 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> G6-SYSTEM-MIB::systemAlternativeMacAddress
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.3181.10.6.1.30.8.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> G6-SYSTEM-MIB::systemAlternativeMacAddress.1
Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):
snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.3181.10.6.1.30.8.1 s <value>
