Description: HTTP - Maximum Headers Reached

What is httpMaxHeaderReached?

This counts HTTP requests the gateway blocked for exceeding the maximum allowed number of headers in a single request. A large number of headers in one request is another exploit or denial-of-service technique, forcing a web server to parse excessive header lines, so this counter flags that specific pattern separately from oversized individual headers. For example, a request carrying 500 duplicate custom headers aimed at exhausting a web server's header-parsing resources getting blocked here.

Examples

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> CHECKPOINT-MIB::httpMaxHeaderReached

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.2620.1.17.1.3.1.2.3.1
