slEntPhysicalDescr
Module: SL-ENTITY-MIB
OID (symbolic): SL-ENTITY-MIB::slEntPhysicalDescr
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.4515.1.3.6.1.1.1.2
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: SnmpAdminString
Access: read-only
Description: A textual description of physical entity. This object should contain a string which identifies the manufacturer's name for the physical entity, and should be set to a distinct value for each version or model of the physical entity. Example: Smartoptics-Oc, Smartoptics-Ethernet, ... The actual value should be taken from the E2prom.
What is slEntPhysicalDescr?
This value identifies the manufacturer's model/version name for this physical slot entity, read directly from the card's onboard E2PROM. An admin uses it to tell what type of card is actually installed in a slot without opening the chassis, since the string is set to a distinct value per model or version. For example, a reading of "Smartoptics-Oc" tells the admin an OC card occupies that slot rather than an Ethernet card.
