saStatus

Module: SUBAGENT-MIB

OID (symbolic): SUBAGENT-MIB::saStatus

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.2.4.12.7.1.4

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: The status of the SubAgent.

The only value that can be set is invalid(2). This can only be done if the status is not already in a ClosedSomething status. (Note: it is OK for an agent to accept a SET that would set the value to exactly the same value as the current status).

Setting this object to the value invalid(2) has the effect of invalidating the entry upon which the agent will close the connection and turn it to status closedByManager(5).

It is an implementation specific matter if an entry that is not valid(1) is removed from the table right away, after some period of time or not at all.

What is saStatus?

The connection status of this subagent -- e.g., valid, connecting, or one of several closed states such as closedByManager or closedBySubAgentTimeout. The only value a manager can set is invalid(2), which closes the connection and moves the entry to closedByManager.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.2.4.12.7.1.4
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> SUBAGENT-MIB::saStatus

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.2.4.12.7.1.4.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> SUBAGENT-MIB::saStatus.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.2.4.12.7.1.4.1 i <value>
