### Description

```asn1
ipsAuthInstDescr OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX SnmpAdminString
MAX-ACCESS read-write
STATUS current
DESCRIPTION
"A character string, determined by the implementation to
describe the authorization instance. When only a single
instance is present, this object may be set to the
zero-length string; with multiple authorization
instances, it must be set to a unique value in an
implementation-dependent manner to describe the purpose
of the respective instance. If this is deployed in a
master agent with more than one subagent implementing
this MIB module, the master agent is responsible for
ensuring that this object is unique across all
subagents."
```

**Classification:** MIB object for network management
