cInetCidrRouteDiscards

Module: CISCO-IETF-IP-FORWARD-MIB

OID (symbolic): CISCO-IETF-IP-FORWARD-MIB::cInetCidrRouteDiscards

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.10.85.8

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Counter32

Access: read-only

Description: The number of routing entries which were chosen to be discarded even though they are valid. One possible reason for discarding such an entry could be to free-up buffer space for other routing entries.

What is cInetCidrRouteDiscards?

A read-only counter of routing table entries that were valid but discarded anyway, for example to free buffer space for other routes.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.10.85.8
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> CISCO-IETF-IP-FORWARD-MIB::cInetCidrRouteDiscards

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.10.85.8.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> CISCO-IETF-IP-FORWARD-MIB::cInetCidrRouteDiscards.1

Start monitoring Cisco router/multilayer switch (IP forwarding table) with a free 30-day trial of IPNetwork Monitor. Create custom SNMP monitor using the CISCO-IETF-IP-FORWARD-MIB::cInetCidrRouteDiscards OID value, configure state conditions and alerts, and monitor any Cisco router/multilayer switch (IP forwarding table) from a single console.

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Select a Cisco router/multilayer switch (IP forwarding table) as the target host to create a monitor — the SNMP service should be up and running on it. Click New Monitor, then check SNMP Custom on the Favorites tab, click Next, and confirm the host. On the next page, click Select... to open the built-in SNMP MIB Browser and type cInetCidrRouteDiscards into the Find box to locate it in the OID tree, then select it and click OK. The number of routing entries which were chosen to be discarded even though they are valid. On the monitor's Main parameters page you can set the target's SNMP port (default 161), credentials, polling interval, and other settings — see the SNMP Monitor help for details. On the State conditions and Alerting tabs, configure when the monitor should change state and trigger an alert; since this is a Counter32-type OID, Value bounds is the most useful condition here — trigger an alert if the counter increases between polls, since a rising count of errors, failures, or discards often points to a real underlying problem. Click Finish to create the monitor; you can adjust any parameter later.
