What is mscLpImaTestPurpose?

This is a free-text field (up to 40 ASCII characters) where an admin records why a particular test was run, so the results can later be correctly associated and interpreted. It's purely documentation — set it to something meaningful like 'post-maintenance BER check' before starting a test run so the results make sense later.

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> Nortel-MsCarrier-MscPassport-ImaMIB::mscLpImaTestPurpose.1
