What is pwPassword?
This writable string, 3 to 19 characters, holds the administrative login password used to manage the device. Admins can rewrite it remotely via SNMP to rotate the device's credential as part of routine password hygiene, though sending it over SNMP in plaintext carries its own security exposure. Writing a new value here immediately replaces the password required for the next management login attempt.
