nnsnmpSourceAddress

Module: SNMP-MIB

OID (symbolic): SNMP-MIB::nnsnmpSourceAddress

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.562.73.1.1.1.5.1.3

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: IpAddress

Access: read-write

What is nnsnmpSourceAddress?

This read-write object sets the source IP address the agent uses when sending SNMP traps, defaulting to the address of ethernet 0; setting it to 0.0.0.0 unconfigures the override. An admin sets this on a multi-homed device to ensure traps are sent from a consistent, expected source address (such as a loopback or management interface) rather than whatever interface routing happens to pick. Setting it to a dedicated management IP address ensures all traps from this device appear to originate from that address, simplifying trap-receiver filtering.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.562.73.1.1.1.5.1.3
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> SNMP-MIB::nnsnmpSourceAddress

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.562.73.1.1.1.5.1.3.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> SNMP-MIB::nnsnmpSourceAddress.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.562.73.1.1.1.5.1.3.1 a <value>
