  • 1.  Cannot see systemname on Datapower using snmpwalk v3

    Posted 03/11/26 11:04 AM

    I am integrating our Datapowers with an external monitoring system. I have downloaded the MIBS for Config and Status from the device.  (IDG.10.6.0.4 build 371904). I need to find the system name inside the SNMP walk output but there is none.

    Is this a 'feature' or a 'bug'? User has snmpv3 access via AuthPriv, User Group has "*/*/*?Access=r" policies, seems to be able to see everything else.

    Any others had this issue and found a soluition? Ian

    On our system, I see the system name with "OID 1.3.6.1.2.1.1.5.0" or with "SNMPv2-MIB::sysName.0" - with snmpwalk:


    snmpwalk -v3 -l authPriv -u svc-checkmk -a SHA -A <auth-pass> -x AES -X <priv-pass> <server> SNMPv2-MIB::sysName.0

    Best regards, Andreas
