pppSecuritySecretsIdentity

Module: PPP-SEC-MIB

OID (symbolic): PPP-SEC-MIB::pppSecuritySecretsIdentity

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.10.23.2.3.1.5

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: OCTET STRING

Access: read-write

Description: The Identity of the ID/Secret pair. The actual format, semantics, and use of pppSecuritySecretsIdentity depends on the actual security protocol used. For example, if pppSecuritySecretsProtocol is pppSecurityPapProtocol then this object will contain a PAP Peer-ID. If pppSecuritySecretsProtocol is pppSecurityChapMD5Protocol then this object would contain the CHAP NAME parameter.

What is pppSecuritySecretsIdentity?

This octet string holds the identity portion of an authentication credential pair, whose format depends on the protocol in pppSecuritySecretsProtocol, such as a PAP Peer-ID or a CHAP NAME. Admins configure it with the username or peer identifier the PPP link should present or expect during authentication. For a PAP-configured entry, setting this to 'router-branch01' provides the PAP Peer-ID sent when this device authenticates to its peer.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.10.23.2.3.1.5
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> PPP-SEC-MIB::pppSecuritySecretsIdentity

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.10.23.2.3.1.5.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> PPP-SEC-MIB::pppSecuritySecretsIdentity.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.10.23.2.3.1.5.1 s <value>
