  • 1.  SNMP object posted as Access read-write but acts like its RO

    Posted 11-08-2020 12:16

    https://apps.juniper.net/mib-explorer/navigate.jsp#object=pethPsePortAdminEnable&product=Junos%20OS&...

    Name pethPsePortAdminEnable
    OID 1.3.6.1.2.1.105.1.1.1.3
    Syntax INTEGER
    Access read-write
    Status current
    Description
    true (1) An interface which can provide the PSE functions. false(2) The interface will act as it would if it had no PSE function.
    Reference IEEE Std 802.3af Section 30.9.1.1.2 aPSEAdminState

     

    I can query the snmp oid just fine but cannot set it .. I have rw set on my v3 and for simple testing my v2

    From my google foo the status 17 index means its not writable.

    snmpset -v3 "auth stuff" 10.10.10.1 .1.3.6.1.2.1.105.1.1.1.3.3.24 integer: 2

     

    Trace shows the snmp request

    If you have looked this far down im sure you saying just use python and automate it. I do plan on it. BUT this is my first attempt to do snmp sets in juniper and I would like to get it working.. If anyone has suggestions im all ears.

    This may show up twice as I had some odd issues when I posted the first time.

     

    I did set my snmp location via snmpset and it worked. Which i thought was a good way to make sure I was doing it correctly.
    snmpset -v3 XXX 10.3.254.15 1.3.6.1.2.1.1.6.0 s "Toms place set via snmpset"

    Hello,

    I have the same issue, trying to shut one interface with :

    snmpset -v2c -c <community> <host>1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.7.516 i "2"
    Error in packet.
    Reason: notWritable (That object does not support modification)
    Failed object: IF-MIB::ifAdminStatus.516

    As ref here this OID should be writable https://apps.juniper.net/mib-explorer/search.jsp#object=ifAdminStatus&product=Junos%20OS&release=18.1R3

    But indeed, changing the snmp location is working :

    snmpset -v2c -c <community> <host> s "test set via snmpset"
    SNMPv2-MIB::sysLocation.0 = STRING: test set via snmpset


    Tested on QFX5110 with Junos 18.1R3-S4
