iscsiNodeAlias

Module: ISCSI-MIB

OID (symbolic): ISCSI-MIB::iscsiNodeAlias

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.142.1.5.1.1.3

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: SnmpAdminString

Access: read-only

Description: A character string that is a human-readable name or description of the iSCSI node. If configured, this alias may be communicated to the initiator or target node at the remote end of the connection during a Login Request or Response message. This string is not used as an identifier, but it can be displayed by the system's user interface in a list of initiators and/or targets to which it is connected.

If no alias exists, the value is a zero-length string.

What is iscsiNodeAlias?

A human-readable name for this iSCSI node that may be shown to the remote peer during login; useful in a management UI's list of initiators/targets since it is not itself a unique identifier.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.142.1.5.1.1.3
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> ISCSI-MIB::iscsiNodeAlias

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.142.1.5.1.1.3.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> ISCSI-MIB::iscsiNodeAlias.1

SNMPv3 example:

snmpget -v3 -l authPriv -u snmpv3-user -a SHA -A "AuthPassword1" -x AES -X "PrivPassword1" <target> iscsiNodeAlias.1
