What is mbufType?

Identifies the type classification of a memory buffer (mbuf) entry in the kernel's mbuf statistics table, used to distinguish different categories of network memory usage. This field serves as a row index for per-type mbuf accounting.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.4.2.8.1.1
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> BSDUNIX-MIB::mbufType

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.4.2.8.1.1.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> BSDUNIX-MIB::mbufType.1

Start monitoring BSD Unix hosts (legacy ISODE SNMP agent) with a free 30-day trial of IPNetwork Monitor. Create custom SNMP monitor using the BSDUNIX-MIB::mbufType OID value, configure state conditions and alerts, and monitor any BSD Unix hosts (legacy ISODE SNMP agent) from a single console.
