Hi Coders,

As per my project requirement I was requested by the NMS to send Textual
Object name in a column of a Table.

Like after adding the Managed device to NMS, the device should make a queue
of updated objects in a table (let's say configUpdateTable) which will be
queried by the NMS if the device sends a trap to notify there are some
updates from device.

My worry is Can we send Object name in SNMP packet or we should send only
OIDs? Is there any standard that says like the Packet should not contain
Textual Object name?

If yes please let me know so that I can conclude like we can only provide
object identifier in the update table.

Please help me to conclude on this. Thanks in advance.

Thanks,
Anand
