Reading Managed Object Values
You may only retrieve (read) managed object values if your management station is a member of the same
community as the SNMP agent.
Dell Networking supports RFC 4001, Textual Conventions for Internet Work Addresses that defines values
representing a type of internet address. These values display for ipAddressTable objects using the
snmpwalk command.
There are several UNIX SNMP commands that read data.

There are several UNIX SNMP commands that read data.
• Read the value of a single managed object.
snmpget -v version -c community agent-ip {identifier.instance |
descriptor.instance}
descriptor.instance}
• Read the value of the managed object directly below the specified object.
snmpgetnext -v version -c community agent-ip {identifier.instance |
descriptor.instance}
descriptor.instance}
• Read the value of many objects at once.
snmpwalk -v version -c community agent-ip {identifier.instance |
descriptor.instance}
descriptor.instance}
Examples of Reading the Value of Managed Objects
In the following example, the value “4” displays in the OID before the IP address for IPv4. For an IPv6 IP
address, a value of “16” displays.
