syslogMsgMsgID
Module: SYSLOG-MSG-MIB
OID (symbolic): SYSLOG-MSG-MIB::syslogMsgMsgID
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.192.1.2.1.9
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: DisplayString
Access: read-only
Description: The msgid of the SYSLOG message. A zero-length string indicates an unknown msgid. The SYSLOG protocol specification constrains this string to printable US-ASCII code points.
What is syslogMsgMsgID?
Reports the msgid field of this syslog message, per RFC 5424, which identifies the type of message; a zero-length string means unknown. Admins/tools use this to programmatically classify or filter messages by event type without parsing the free-text message body. A consistent syslogMsgMsgID value across many entries would let an admin quickly filter for just that specific class of event, such as authentication failures.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.192.1.2.1.9 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> SYSLOG-MSG-MIB::syslogMsgMsgID
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.192.1.2.1.9.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> SYSLOG-MSG-MIB::syslogMsgMsgID.1
