Hi Sunny,

You can check F5-BIGIP-SYSTEM-MIB: 


/usr/share/snmp/mibs/F5-BIGIP-SYSTEM-MIB.txt

sysAttrFailoverUnitMask OBJECT-TYPE
        SYNTAX Integer32
        MAX-ACCESS read-only
        STATUS current
        DESCRIPTION
                "This data indicates whether the machine is active or standby.
                The value for this data could be 0, 1, 2, or 3.
                The values of 1 and 2 are only defined for an active-active installation.
                If two boxes are both active, value for unit 1 will be 1 and value for unit 2 will be 2.
                Otherwise, for active unit, this value is 3; for stand-by unit, this value is 0."
        ::= { sysGlobalAttr 19 }

snmpwalk -c public localhost sysAttrFailoverIsRedundant

F5-BIGIP-SYSTEM-MIB::sysAttrFailoverIsRedundant.0 = INTEGER: true(1)

snmpwalk -c public localhost sysAttrFailoverUnitMask

F5-BIGIP-SYSTEM-MIB::sysAttrFailoverUnitMask.0 = INTEGER: 3
