hwNmsGetCommunity
Module: HUAWEI-DEVICE-MIB
OID (symbolic): HUAWEI-DEVICE-MIB::hwNmsGetCommunity
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.2011.6.3.2.1.6
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

What is hwNmsGetCommunity?
The SNMP community string the device expects for GET (read) requests from a given NMS entry, defaulting to "public". Changing it from the default is a basic hardening step so the read-only community isn't guessable.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.2011.6.3.2.1.6 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> HUAWEI-DEVICE-MIB::hwNmsGetCommunity
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.2011.6.3.2.1.6.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> HUAWEI-DEVICE-MIB::hwNmsGetCommunity.1
Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):
snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.2011.6.3.2.1.6.1 s <value>
