axSwitchStatAnomIPOptionDrop
Module: A10-AX-MIB
OID (symbolic): A10-AX-MIB::axSwitchStatAnomIPOptionDrop
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.22610.2.4.3.16.31.1.25
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: Counter32
Access: read-only
Description:
Number of packets dropped by an IP option filter.
What is axSwitchStatAnomIPOptionDrop?
This Counter32 counts packets rejected because they contain IP options that are either unsupported or potentially dangerous (strict routing, timestamps, etc.). Tracking this helps security teams detect reconnaissance probes or exploits that misuse IP options to bypass normal filtering. A sustained count of 5000 drops daily in normal operation might indicate a vulnerability scanner probing the network perimeter.
