chasControlBufferUtilization
Module: CHASSIS-MIB
OID (symbolic): CHASSIS-MIB::chasControlBufferUtilization
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.800.2.1.3.1.1.15
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: Gauge
Access: read-only
Description: The current software does not pool a specific number of buffers. Therefore this object is obsolete.
What is chasControlBufferUtilization?
Like chasControlFreeBuffers, this object is explicitly marked obsolete in its description because the current software doesn't pool a fixed number of buffers, so there's no real utilization percentage for it to report. An admin should treat any value reported here as not meaningful on current firmware and remove it from active monitoring or alerting rather than trying to interpret trends in it. A legacy monitoring dashboard that still alerts on chasControlBufferUtilization crossing 90% would be triggering on data that no longer corresponds to any real buffer pool.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.800.2.1.3.1.1.15 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> CHASSIS-MIB::chasControlBufferUtilization
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.800.2.1.3.1.1.15.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> CHASSIS-MIB::chasControlBufferUtilization.1
SNMPv3 example:
snmpget -v3 -l authPriv -u snmpv3-user -a SHA -A "AuthPassword1" -x AES -X "PrivPassword1" <target> chasControlBufferUtilization.1
