Module: CIENA-CES-TACACS-CLIENT-MIB

OID (symbolic): CIENA-CES-TACACS-CLIENT-MIB::cienaCesTacacsClientGlobalAccountingBadHeaderSequence

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.1271.2.3.2.1.1.3.1.1.27

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Counter32

Access: read-only

Description: The number of TACACS packets which were received from this server on the authentication port and dropped for some other reason.

What is cienaCesTacacsClientGlobalAccountingBadHeaderSequence?

This is the accounting-phase catch-all counter for packets dropped on the accounting port for reasons other than being malformed, having a bad authenticator, or being an unrecognized type. An admin seeing only this counter rise, with all the more specific accounting error counters flat, should suspect a transport-layer problem, such as packet corruption or reordering on the path to the accounting server, rather than a TACACS+ configuration issue. For example, this could increment during a period of packet loss or MTU mismatch affecting the TCP session carrying accounting traffic.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.1271.2.3.2.1.1.3.1.1.27

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.1271.2.3.2.1.1.3.1.1.27.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> CIENA-CES-TACACS-CLIENT-MIB::cienaCesTacacsClientGlobalAccountingBadHeaderSequence.1

SNMPv3 example:

snmpget -v3 -l authPriv -u snmpv3-user -a SHA -A "AuthPassword1" -x AES -X "PrivPassword1" <target> cienaCesTacacsClientGlobalAccountingBadHeaderSequence.1
