Hi Jayshankar,
Because system.sysContact.0 is read-only. snmpd.conf on your device could
have directive 'sysContact'.
snmpd.conf manpage says that specifying sysContact directives in
snmpd.conf makes the corresponding object read-only, and attempts to SET
it will result in a *notWritable* error response.
Thanks,
Pushpa.T
