getone(1M) TCP/IP 5.4.2 getone(1M)
NAME
getone - get MIB-object from SNMP agent
SYNOPSIS
getone host community object ...
where:
host is a hostname or Internet address
community is a community string
object is a fully qualified object name
DESCRIPTION
Use the getone command to retrieve object instances from an SNMP
agent. The getone command sends an SNMP message containing the
community string and a GetRequest-PDU requesting the specified object
from the agent running on host.
Specify the host as either a hostname or as an Internet address in
dot-notation.
The community string is a text string used by the agent to
authenticate the request. You must configure the agent to accept
requests from the specified community for the operation to be
successful.
The object specified must be fully qualified, which means that it
should represent an object instance instead of an object type. For
example, sysDescr represents an object type while sysDescr.0
represents an object instance. You may specify the object in either
dot-notation representing the object identifier or as a text string
representing the object descriptor.
EXAMPLE
$ getone myhost public sysDescr.0 sysUpTime.0 1.3.6.1.2.1.2.1.1
Name: sysDescr.0
Value: DG/UX TCP/IP SNMP AGENT
Name: sysUpTime.0
Value: 964922
Name: ifNumber.0
Value: 2
DIAGNOSTICS
Exit status is 0 upon success.
Exit status is -1 if there are errors parsing the command line.
Exit status is 1 if the agent returns an error.
