GS716Tv3 agentPortSecurityMACAddressAdd Not writeable

The SNMP agentPortSecurityMACAddressAdd is shown to be a read/write OBJECT-TYPE, but it is not writeable or I don't understand how to craft the SNMPset command.

Hardware = GS716TV3

Firmware = 6.3.1.19

 

Examples of tested snmpsets (note all of these result in the same output):

snmpset -Ob -v3 -a SHA -x DES -X snmpv3string -u admin -A somepassword -l authPriv A.B.C.D 1.3.6.1.4.1.4526.11.20.1.2.1.8.6 s "1234 11:22:33:44:55:66"

All yield this as output:

"Error in packet.

Reason: commitFailed"

 

Notice that I can do a get and output shows empty string (as expected):

 

snmpget -Ob -v3 -a SHA -x DES -X snmpv3string -u admin -A somepassword -l authPriv A.B.C.D 1.3.6.1.4.1.4526.11.20.1.2.1.8.6

iso.3.6.1.4.1.4526.11.20.1.2.1.8.6 = ""

 

So question is, why has Netgear made the OID "1.3.6.1.4.1.4526.11.20.1.2.1.8" un-writeable when in the MIB is is shown to be read/write?
