bsSourceGuardStatsDroppedPackets

Module: BAY-STACK-SOURCE-GUARD-MIB

OID (symbolic): BAY-STACK-SOURCE-GUARD-MIB::bsSourceGuardStatsDroppedPackets

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.45.5.20.1.3.1.2

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Counter32

Access: read-only

Description: The number of received packets on this interface that were dropped due to IP source guard filtering.

What is bsSourceGuardStatsDroppedPackets?

Counts the number of incoming packets on an interface that were discarded because their source IP address was not on the Source Guard permit list. This helps identify IP spoofing or misconfigured devices on the segment.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.45.5.20.1.3.1.2
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> BAY-STACK-SOURCE-GUARD-MIB::bsSourceGuardStatsDroppedPackets

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.45.5.20.1.3.1.2.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> BAY-STACK-SOURCE-GUARD-MIB::bsSourceGuardStatsDroppedPackets.1

Start monitoring Avaya/Nortel BayStack switches with a free 30-day trial of IPNetwork Monitor. Create custom SNMP monitor using the BAY-STACK-SOURCE-GUARD-MIB::bsSourceGuardStatsDroppedPackets OID value, configure state conditions and alerts, and monitor any Avaya/Nortel BayStack switches from a single console.

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Select an Avaya/Nortel BayStack 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 bsSourceGuardStatsDroppedPackets 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 received packets on this interface that were dropped due to IP source guard filtering. 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 between polls, since a rising count of errors, failures, or discards often points to a real underlying problem. Click Finish to create the monitor; you can adjust any parameter later.
