What is swSSHMaxAuthFailAttempts?
The number of failed authentication attempts (2-20) tolerated on an SSH connection before the switch disconnects it, guarding against brute-force login attempts.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.2272.1.201.1.5.1.4 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> SSH-MIB::swSSHMaxAuthFailAttempts
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.2272.1.201.1.5.1.4.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> SSH-MIB::swSSHMaxAuthFailAttempts.1
Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):
snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.2272.1.201.1.5.1.4.1 i <value>
