The following information is displayed:

- System Name (sysName)

- System Description (sysDescr)

- Up Since (hrSystemUptime)

- System Date (hrSystemDate)

- Total Memory (hrMemorySize)

- Boot Device (hrSystemInitialLoadDevice)

- Boot Parameters (hrSystemInitialLoadParameters)

- Number of Users (hrSystemNumUsers)

- Number of Processes (hrSystemProcesses)

- System Contact (sysContact)

- Location (sysLocation)

System Name (sysName)

Administratively assigned name for this managed node. By convention, this is the node's fully-qualified domain name.

System Description (sysDescr)

Textual description of the entity. This value should indicate the full name and version of the system's hardware type, software operating system, and networking software.

Note: It is mandatory that this object only contains printable ASCII characters.

Up Since (hrSystemUptime)

Amount of time since this host was last initialized.

This object is different from the sysUpTime object in the SNMPv2-MIB [RFC1907] because sysUpTime indicates the uptime of the network management portion of the system.

System Date (hrSystemDate)

Local date and time, as configured on the host.

Total Memory (hrMemorySize)

Amount of physical read-write main memory, typically RAM, available on the host.

Boot Device (hrSystemInitialLoadDevice)

Indicates the device from which this host is configured to load its initial operating system configuration (operating system code and/or boot parameters).

Note: Modifying this object does not cause a reload to occur. It only changes the configuration that will be used the next time the operating system is loaded.

Boot Parameters (hrSystemInitialLoadParameters)

Indicates the parameters supplied to the load device when requesting the initial operating system configuration from that device.

Number of Users (hrSystemNumUsers)

Number of user sessions for which this host is storing state information.

A session is a collection of processes requiring one user authentication and is possibly subject to collective job control.

Number of Processes (hrSystemProcesses)

Number of processes currently loaded or running on this system.

System Contact (sysContact)

Contact person for this managed node, as well as information on how to contact this person.

Location (sysLocation)

Physical location of this node.
