What is gsmpSwitchInstance?
This read-only 24-bit value (1-16777215) is the current instance number for this switch entity, guaranteed unique in the recent past and changed whenever the link or node comes back up after going down. An admin watches for a change here to detect that the switch side of a GSMP adjacency recently restarted.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.98.1.2.1.6 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> GSMP-MIB::gsmpSwitchInstance
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.98.1.2.1.6.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> GSMP-MIB::gsmpSwitchInstance.1
