Input Parameter Description Default Value Condition Name Specifies the condition type to be checked. Choose from the following: - SingleOidExistsSnmpCondition: Perform a snmpget on oid: returns true if the oid exists
- SingleOidContainsSnmpCondition: Perform a snmpget on oid: returns true if the snmp varbind exists and its value matches the matchValue regex. invertMatch is used to negate the regex match result: return true when the varbind value does not match.
- TableExistsSnmpCondition: Perform a snmpgetnext at the table root oid. Returns true if the returned snmp varbind is part of the queried table.
