fwSXLConnsExisting
Module: CHECKPOINT-MIB
OID (symbolic): CHECKPOINT-MIB::fwSXLConnsExisting
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.2620.1.36.1.2
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: INTEGER
Access: read-only
Description: The number of existing connections handled by SecureXL.
What is fwSXLConnsExisting?
The desc explicitly states this is the number of existing connections handled by SecureXL. Comparing this to fwConnectionsStatConnections tells you what fraction of total firewall traffic is actually being fast-pathed by SecureXL versus handled by the slower firewall kernel; a low ratio despite SecureXL being enabled often means many connections are being kicked to the slow path, for example due to NAT or VPN, more than expected. e.g. fwSXLConnsExisting = 38,000 out of 42,000 total TCP connections, meaning roughly 90% of traffic is currently accelerated.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.2620.1.36.1.2 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> CHECKPOINT-MIB::fwSXLConnsExisting
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.2620.1.36.1.2.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> CHECKPOINT-MIB::fwSXLConnsExisting.1
SNMPv3 example:
snmpget -v3 -l authPriv -u snmpv3-user -a SHA -A "AuthPassword1" -x AES -X "PrivPassword1" <target> fwSXLConnsExisting.1
