What is rdnSyslogClear?

Indicates whether the syslog file currently holds any messages (false means it has messages, true means it's empty), and setting it to true clears all messages from the file. Admins write this object to manually purge the local syslog file, for example to start with a clean log before reproducing an intermittent issue. Before reproducing a suspected bug, an admin would set rdnSyslogClear to true(1) to wipe the existing log, then reproduce the issue so only relevant new messages appear.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.4981.3.7
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> RDN-SYSLOG-MIB::rdnSyslogClear

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.4981.3.7.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> RDN-SYSLOG-MIB::rdnSyslogClear.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.4981.3.7.1 i <value>
