What is nwIpPingAction?

This enumerated value (other, activate, or suspend) is the control switch that starts or pauses execution of a configured ping entry. An admin sets it to activate(2) once a destination and owner are configured to fire off the actual ping attempts, or to suspend(3) to pause polling without deleting the entry. For example, after configuring destination 10.0.0.5, setting this object to activate(2) begins the ping.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.52.4.1.3.1.2.1.1.1.4
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> NETWORK-DIAGS::nwIpPingAction

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.52.4.1.3.1.2.1.1.1.4.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> NETWORK-DIAGS::nwIpPingAction.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.52.4.1.3.1.2.1.1.1.4.1 i <value>

SNMPv3 example:

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