rs232SyncPortRole

Module: RS-232-MIB

OID (symbolic): RS-232-MIB::rs232SyncPortRole

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.10.33.4.1.8

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

What is rs232SyncPortRole?

Sets whether this synchronous port acts as DTE (dte(1), the terminal/data equipment) or DCE (dce(2), the circuit-terminating equipment, the default); this determines, for example, which side drives the clock and which side RTS/CTS signals flow from.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.10.33.4.1.8
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> RS-232-MIB::rs232SyncPortRole

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.10.33.4.1.8.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> RS-232-MIB::rs232SyncPortRole.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.10.33.4.1.8.1 i <value>

SNMPv3 example:

snmpget -v3 -l authPriv -u snmpv3-user -a SHA -A "AuthPassword1" -x AES -X "PrivPassword1" <target> rs232SyncPortRole.1
