What is hwMacAuthenGlobalEnable?

This is a global on/off switch (EnabledStatus) controlling whether MAC address authentication is active for the whole device. It acts as a prerequisite gate: per-port MAC authentication settings only take effect once this global setting is enabled. For example, an admin sets it to enable(1) before configuring hwMacAuthenPortEnable on individual switch ports, since per-port authentication stays inactive otherwise.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.2011.5.25.171.1.1
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> HUAWEI-MAC-AUTHEN-MIB::hwMacAuthenGlobalEnable

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.2011.5.25.171.1.1.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> HUAWEI-MAC-AUTHEN-MIB::hwMacAuthenGlobalEnable.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.2011.5.25.171.1.1.1 s <value>
