icmpOutRedirects

Module: CHECKPOINT-MIB-2

OID (symbolic): CHECKPOINT-MIB-2::icmpOutRedirects

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.5.20

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Counter

Access: read-only

Description: The number of ICMP Redirect messages sent. For a

host, this object will always be zero, since hosts do not send redirects.

What is icmpOutRedirects?

Counts ICMP Redirect messages sent by the device, explicitly noted to always be zero for a host since hosts don't send redirects. Because a Check Point gateway typically does route or forward traffic, seeing this stay persistently at zero over time is itself informative; it confirms the gateway isn't issuing redirects that could reroute client traffic through unintended paths, which some hardening guides explicitly want disabled. Example: confirming icmpOutRedirects stays at zero after a security hardening pass verifies redirect generation was successfully disabled as intended.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.5.20
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> CHECKPOINT-MIB-2::icmpOutRedirects

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.5.20.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> CHECKPOINT-MIB-2::icmpOutRedirects.1
