What is arubaWiredRpvstVlanRootChangeCounter?

This counter increments each time a VLAN's root bridge changes. High values indicate unstable spanning tree topology. Used to diagnose frequent topology changes.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.47196.4.1.1.3.5.1.2.1.14
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> ARUBAWIRED-RPVST-MIB::arubaWiredRpvstVlanRootChangeCounter

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.47196.4.1.1.3.5.1.2.1.14.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> ARUBAWIRED-RPVST-MIB::arubaWiredRpvstVlanRootChangeCounter.1

SNMPv3 example:

snmpget -v3 -l authPriv -u snmpv3-user -a SHA -A "AuthPassword1" -x AES -X "PrivPassword1" <target> arubaWiredRpvstVlanRootChangeCounter.1

Start monitoring Aruba (HPE) ArubaOS-CX wired switches with a free 30-day trial of IPNetwork Monitor. Create custom SNMP monitor using the ARUBAWIRED-RPVST-MIB::arubaWiredRpvstVlanRootChangeCounter OID value, configure state conditions and alerts, and monitor any Aruba (HPE) ArubaOS-CX wired switches from a single console.

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Select an Aruba (HPE) ArubaOS-CX wired switch as the target host to create a monitor — the SNMP service should be up and running on it. Click New Monitor, then check SNMP Custom on the Favorites tab, click Next, and confirm the host. On the next page, click Select... to open the built-in SNMP MIB Browser and type arubaWiredRpvstVlanRootChangeCounter into the Find box to locate it in the OID tree, selecting the specific row/instance you want to monitor since this is a table column, then select it and click OK. The number of times the root has changed for this VLAN. On the monitor's Main parameters page you can set the target's SNMP port (default 161), credentials, polling interval, and other settings — see the SNMP Monitor help for details. On the State conditions and Alerting tabs, configure when the monitor should change state and trigger an alert; since this is a Counter32-type OID, Value bounds is the most useful condition here — trigger an alert if the counter increases sharply between polls relative to its normal baseline, since an unexpected spike often reflects a real change in traffic or activity. Click Finish to create the monitor; you can adjust any parameter later.
