If no specific firmware programs are associated with the physical component, or if this information
is unknown to the agent, then this object will contain a zero-length string.

Set to an empty string.

entPhysicalSoftwareRev 1.3.6.1.2.1.47.1.1.1.1.10

The vendor-specific software revision string for the physical entity.

Note that if revision information is stored internally in a nonprintable (for example, binary) format,
then the agent must convert such information to a printable format, in an implementation-specific
manner.

If no specific software programs are associated with the physical component, or if this information
is unknown to the agent, then this object will contain a zero-length string.

Set to empty string.

entPhysicalSerialNum 1.3.6.1.2.1.47.1.1.1.1.11

The vendor-specific serial number string for the physical entity. The preferred value is the serial
number actually printed on the component (if present).

On the first instantiation of a physical entity, the value of entPhysicalSerialNum associated with
that entity is set to the correct vendor-assigned serial number, if this information is available to the
agent. If a serial number is unknown or nonexistent, the entPhysicalSerialNum is set to a
zero-length string instead.

Note that implementations that can correctly identify the serial numbers of all installed physical
entities do not need to provide write access to the entPhysicalSerialNum object. Agents that cannot
provide nonvolatile storage for the entPhysicalSerialNum strings are not required to implement
write access for this object.

Not every physical component has a serial number or even needs one. Physical entities for which
the associated value of the entPhysicalIsFRU object is equal to “false(2)” (for example, the repeater
ports within a repeater module), do not need their own unique serial number. An agent does not
have to provide write access for such entities and might return a zero-length string.

If write access is implemented for an instance of entPhysicalSerialNum and a value is written into
the instance, the agent must retain the supplied value in the entPhysicalSerialNum instance
associated with the same physical entity for as long as that entity remains instantiated. This
includes instantiations across all reinitializations/reboots of the network management system,
including those that result in a change of the physical entity’s entPhysicalIndex value.

Set to serial number and part number (if available), respectively.

NOTE

For the Brocade 4024 blade, entPhysicalSerialNum displays the vendor-specific serial number; for
other switches it displays the factory serial number.

entPhysicalMfgName 1.3.6.1.2.1.47.1.1.1.1.12

The name of the manufacturer of this physical component. The preferred value is the name
actually printed on the component (if present).
