What is hwMacAuthenPassword?

This string holds the fixed password used for global MAC authentication when hwMacAuthenModeUsername is set to a fixed credential rather than one derived from the MAC address. It must match what is provisioned on the RADIUS or AAA server, since all MAC-authenticated hosts device-wide share this single static password. For example, an admin sets it to "MacAuthPwd123" to match the credential configured on the authentication server.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.2011.5.25.171.1.3
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> HUAWEI-MAC-AUTHEN-MIB::hwMacAuthenPassword

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.2011.5.25.171.1.3.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> HUAWEI-MAC-AUTHEN-MIB::hwMacAuthenPassword.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.2011.5.25.171.1.3.1 s <value>
