Description: Indicates the number of encap tunnels that are using this path.

What is cienaCesMplsGlobalTunnelPathUseCount?

This counts how many encap tunnels are currently configured to use this particular explicit path, letting an admin gauge how much of the network's traffic depends on a single defined route. This matters directly for change-management risk: a path with a use count of 40 is far riskier to modify or delete than one with a use count of 1, since doing so could disrupt dozens of tunnels simultaneously. Before deleting or editing a path definition, checking this counter tells the engineer exactly how many services would be affected.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.1271.2.1.18.1.3.3.1.1.3
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> CIENA-CES-MPLS-MIB::cienaCesMplsGlobalTunnelPathUseCount

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.1271.2.1.18.1.3.3.1.1.3.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> CIENA-CES-MPLS-MIB::cienaCesMplsGlobalTunnelPathUseCount.1
