What is systemPrimaryDnsServer?
This is the IP address of the primary DNS server the device uses to resolve hostnames. An admin configures this so the device can look up names for NTP servers, syslog targets, or other configured hostnames rather than requiring raw IP addresses everywhere. For example, an admin might set this to 8.8.8.8 or an internal resolver's address.
Examples

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.5504.2.5.11.1.9 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> NPSYSTEM::systemPrimaryDnsServer
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.5504.2.5.11.1.9.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> NPSYSTEM::systemPrimaryDnsServer.1
Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):
snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.5504.2.5.11.1.9.1 a <value>
