Description: IPsec bytes before compression
What is cpvIpsecComprBytesBefore?
The desc explicitly states this is the count of IPsec bytes before compression — bytes of outbound payload before this gateway compresses them, the send-direction mirror of cpvIpsecDecomprBytesBefore. This is the uncompressed size of outbound traffic going into IPComp-enabled tunnels; combined with cpvIpsecComprBytesAfter it gives the actual compression ratio this gateway is achieving on real traffic, rather than a theoretical figure. e.g. cpvIpsecComprBytesBefore = 800MB of outbound data before compression on a tunnel carrying mostly plaintext logs and application data that compresses well.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.2620.1.2.5.4.12 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> CHECKPOINT-MIB::cpvIpsecComprBytesBefore
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.2620.1.2.5.4.12.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> CHECKPOINT-MIB::cpvIpsecComprBytesBefore.1
SNMPv3 example:
snmpget -v3 -l authPriv -u snmpv3-user -a SHA -A "AuthPassword1" -x AES -X "PrivPassword1" <target> cpvIpsecComprBytesBefore.1
