snmpSetSerialNo

Module: SNMPv2-MIB

OID (symbolic): SNMPv2-MIB::snmpSetSerialNo

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.6.3.1.1.6.1

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: TestAndIncr

Access: read-write

Description: An advisory lock used to allow several cooperating command generator applications to coordinate their use of the SNMP set operation.

This object is used for coarse-grain coordination. To achieve fine-grain coordination, one or more similar objects might be defined within each MIB group, as appropriate.

What is snmpSetSerialNo?

This is a number that acts as a coordination lock for multiple monitoring tools trying to change device settings at the same time. Operators can read and write it to synchronize configuration changes. Without it, two tools might accidentally overwrite each other's updates.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.6.3.1.1.6.1
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> SNMPv2-MIB::snmpSetSerialNo

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.6.3.1.1.6.1.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> SNMPv2-MIB::snmpSetSerialNo.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.6.3.1.1.6.1.1 s <value>
