Data types and debug levels

This chapter describes the SNMP datatypes, and the debug settings for the SNMP Manager.

SNMP data types

Data type

Meaning

SNMP Syntax

SNMPTransInt32Type

This data type is used to send and receive integer values. The corresponding SNMP data types are INTEGER and Integer32. The data types bool, bit32, int and uint can be processed in the send direction.

2

SNMPTransBitType

This data type is used to send and receive bit values. The data type bit32, can be processed in the send direction.

3

SNMPTransUInt32Type

Unsigned integer values are sent and received via this data type. The corresponding SNMP data types are Unsigned32, Gauge, Gauge32, Counter, Counter32, Timeticks and Timestamp. The data types bool, bit32, int and uint  can be processed in the send direction.

65,66,67

SNMPTransUInt64Type

This data type was set for 64bit numbers. The numbers are thereby passed as two "normal" integer values. The lowest sub index refers to the lower part of the number. The corresponding SNMP data type is Counter64.

The data types int and uint can be processed in the send direction.

70

SNMPTransObjectIdentifierType

The object identifier represents a SNMP OID. In WinCC OA it is represented as a string.

6

SNMPTransOctetType

The octet type represents the SNMP octet type generally. It processes data that is represented as a blob in WinCC OA.

4

SNMPTransDisplayStringType

The DisplayString is a specific octet string that follows the C convention. According to RFC 2579 this type has a maximum length of 255 characters. The corresponding WinCC OA data type is text.

The transformation "visible string" shows only character that can be displayed and the transformation "visible string hex" shows only hex values.

4

SNMPTransDateTimeType

According to the RFC 2579 this format transfers time information. This time information is represented as TimeVar in WinCC OA.

4

SNMPTransMACAddressType

This data type represents the MAC address. In WinCC OA this address is saved as text (00:03:45:FF:35:6D).

4

SNMPTransIPAddressType

Represents the Ipv4 address. The address is specified as dotted decimal notation and is saved in WinCC OA as a text (192.168.1.2).

4,64

SNMPTransBitsType

The bits type represents the SNMP bit type generally.  Using this data type int, uint as well as bit types can be processed.

3

SNMPTransHexStringType

The HexString is a specific Hex string that follows the C convention. According to RFC 2579 this type has a maximum length of 255 characters. The corresponding WinCC OA data type is text.

The transformation "visible string" shows only character that can be displayed and the transformation "visible string hex" shows only hex values.

4

Debug settings for the SNMP Manager

The following debug levels can be used for error analysis and for support at startup.
