cidsHealthIsSensorMemoryCritical

Module: CISCO-CIDS-MIB

OID (symbolic): CISCO-CIDS-MIB::cidsHealthIsSensorMemoryCritical

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.383.1.4.14

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Unsigned32

Access: read-only

Description: A value between 0 and 10 that should rarely get above 3. If this is non-zero the sensor has stopped enforcing policy on some traffic in order to keep up with the current traffic load; the sensor is oversubscribed. The higher the number the more oversubscribed the sensor. It could be oversubscribed from a memory prospective and not traffic speed. For example on a 200 Mbit sensor this number might be 3 if the sensor was only seeing 100Mbit of traffic but 6000 connections per second which is over the rated capacity of the sensor. When the sensor is in Memory Critical state then a ciscoCidsError trap will be sent accordingly.

What is cidsHealthIsSensorMemoryCritical?

A value from 0-10 indicating how oversubscribed the sensor is; a non-zero value means the sensor has stopped enforcing policy on some traffic to keep up with load, with higher values indicating more severe oversubscription.
