netSnmpExampleHeartbeatName

Module: NET-SNMP-EXAMPLES-MIB

OID (symbolic): NET-SNMP-EXAMPLES-MIB::netSnmpExampleHeartbeatName

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.8072.2.3.2.2

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: SnmpAdminString

Access: accessible-for-notify

Description: A simple string object, to act as an optional payload for the netSnmpExampleHeartbeatNotification. This varbind is not part of the notification definition, so is optional and need not be included in the notification payload. The value has no real meaning, but the romantically inclined may take it to be the object of the sender's affection, and hence the cause of the heart beating faster.

What is netSnmpExampleHeartbeatName?

This string object acts as an optional payload for the netSnmpExampleHeartbeatNotification trap; it is not formally part of the notification's varbind list, so an agent may include or omit it, and the MIB notes its value has no real enforced meaning. Developers use it to see how a notification can carry an optional, non-mandatory varbind alongside its required payload. For example, an agent generating the heartbeat trap might optionally include this string set to an arbitrary label to demonstrate the optional-varbind pattern.
