Object

The name of the time zone in which node
is located.
          
A few examples:
          
'CET'
          
'EET'
          
'Europe/Stockholm'
          
'Europe/London'
          
'Europe/Copenhagen'
          
'Europe/Berlin'
          
'America/Chicago'
          
'America/Kentucky/Louisville'
          
'Asia/Tokyo'
          
Note: The notation used for naming the
timezones where the offset to Coordinated
Universal Time (UTC) is explicitly included,
i.e. 'GMT-2', may be confusing.
The offset indicates the time value
to be added to the local time to get UTC.
          
This means that the the offset is positive
for timezones west of UTC and and negative
east of UTC. This is the opposite of how
timezones are often described.
For example standard time in Sweden is
'GMT-1'. On timezone maps zones east of
UTC are often given a positive offset
so that the very same zone is called 'GMT+1'.
          
This attribute can be written via SNMP.

Display format

Type Description
Represents textual information taken from the NVT ASCII
          
character set, as defined in pages 4, 10-11 of RFC 854.
          
To summarize RFC 854, the NVT ASCII repertoire specifies:
          
  - the use of character codes 0-127 (decimal)
          
  - the graphics characters (32-126) are interpreted as
    US ASCII
          
  - NUL, LF, CR, BEL, BS, HT, VT and FF have the special
    meanings specified in RFC 854
          
  - the other 25 codes have no standard interpretation
          
  - the sequence 'CR LF' means newline
          
  - the sequence 'CR NUL' means carriage-return
          
  - an 'LF' not preceded by a 'CR' means moving to the
    same column on the next line.
          
  - the sequence 'CR x' for any x other than LF or NUL is
    illegal.  (Note that this also means that a string may
    end with either 'CR LF' or 'CR NUL', but not with CR.)
          
Any object defined using this syntax may not exceed 255
characters in length.
