lldpLocSysDesc
Module: LLDP-MIB
OID (symbolic): LLDP-MIB::lldpLocSysDesc
OID (numeric): 1.0.8802.1.1.2.1.3.4
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: SnmpAdminString
Access: read-only
Description: The string value used to identify the system description of the local system. If the local agent supports IETF RFC 3418, lldpLocSysDesc object should have the same value of sysDesc object.
What is lldpLocSysDesc?
This read-only object contains the system description string of the local device, typically matching the standard SNMP sysDescr object and providing human-readable identification of the device type, operating system, and version. This description is advertised to neighboring devices via LLDP (Link Layer Discovery Protocol) to help with device identification and topology mapping. An operator would read this during initial network discovery or when troubleshooting to confirm device identity and software version across the network.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.0.8802.1.1.2.1.3.4 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> LLDP-MIB::lldpLocSysDesc
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.0.8802.1.1.2.1.3.4.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> LLDP-MIB::lldpLocSysDesc.1
