pktcMtaDevErrorReason

Module: PKTC-IETF-MTA-MIB

OID (symbolic): PKTC-IETF-MTA-MIB::pktcMtaDevErrorReason

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.140.1.1.12.1.4

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: SnmpAdminString

Access: read-only

Description: This object indicates the reason for the error or warning, as per the MTA's interpretation, in human-readable form. For example: 'VALUE NOT IN RANGE', 'VALUE DOES NOT MATCH TYPE', 'UNSUPPORTED VALUE', 'LAST 4 BITS MUST BE SET TO ZERO', 'OUT OF MEMORY - CANNOT STORE'. This object may also contain vendor specific errors for private vendor OIDs and any proprietary error codes or messages that can help diagnose configuration errors.

If the number of errors in the configuration file exceeds 1024, then for all subsequent errors, the pktcMtaDevErrorReason of the table's 1024th entry MUST contain a human-readable string indicating the reason for an error; for example, 'Too many errors in the configuration file'.

What is pktcMtaDevErrorReason?

A human-readable explanation of why a configuration parameter was rejected, such as 'VALUE NOT IN RANGE' or 'UNSUPPORTED VALUE', paired with pktcMtaDevErrorOid and pktcMtaDevErrorValue in the same error-table row.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.140.1.1.12.1.4
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> PKTC-IETF-MTA-MIB::pktcMtaDevErrorReason

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.140.1.1.12.1.4.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> PKTC-IETF-MTA-MIB::pktcMtaDevErrorReason.1

SNMPv3 example:

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