Description: the SNTP server status for time source changing

What is swSNTPTimeSource?

This value reports which SNTP time source is currently governing the switch's clock: the system's own clock, server 1, or server 2. Admins check it to confirm the switch is actually syncing from the expected server, especially when troubleshooting a time-related issue. Seeing swSNTPTimeSource fall back to system(0) tells the admin the switch has lost contact with both configured SNTP servers.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.171.12.10.11.2
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> TIME-MIB::swSNTPTimeSource

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.171.12.10.11.2.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> TIME-MIB::swSNTPTimeSource.1
