Module: PARALLEL-MIB
OID (symbolic): PARALLEL-MIB::paraPortType
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.10.34.2.1.2
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: INTEGER
Access: read-only
Description: The port's hardware type.
What is paraPortType?
This reports the hardware type of the parallel port: other(1), centronics(2), or dataproducts(3). An admin reads this to know what kind of parallel interface standard the port implements, which matters when connecting or troubleshooting compatibility with attached printer hardware. For example, a standard printer parallel port would typically report paraPortType as centronics(2), the common Centronics parallel interface standard.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.10.34.2.1.2 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> PARALLEL-MIB::paraPortType
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.10.34.2.1.2.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> PARALLEL-MIB::paraPortType.1
SNMPv3 example:
snmpget -v3 -l authPriv -u snmpv3-user -a SHA -A "AuthPassword1" -x AES -X "PrivPassword1" <target> paraPortType.1
