36 SNMP Reference for Directors and Edge Switches
sysName DisplayString (0..255) RW An administratively-assigned name for this
managed node. By convention, this is the
node's fully-qualified domain name.
sysLocation DisplayString (0..255) RW The physical location of this node (for
example, “telephone closet, 3rd floor”).
sysServices INTEGER R A value which indicates the set of services
that this entity primarily offers. The value is a
sum. This sum initially takes the value zero,
Then, for each layer, L, in the range 1
through 7, that this node performs
transactions for, 2 raised to (L - 1) is added
to the sum.
For example, a node which performs
primarily routing functions would have a
value of 4 (2^(3-1)). In contrast, a node
which is a host offering application services
would have a value of 72 (2^(4-1) +
2^(7-1)).
Note that in the context of the Internet suite of
protocols, values should be calculated
accordingly:
layer functionality
1 physical (for example, repeaters)
2 datalink/subnetwork (for example,
bridges)
3 Internet (for example, IP gateways)
4 end-to-end (for example, IP hosts)
7 applications (for example, mail
relays)
For systems including OSI protocols, layers 5
and 6 may also be counted.
