cMsdpPeerRPFFailures

Module: CISCO-IETF-MSDP-MIB

OID (symbolic): CISCO-IETF-MSDP-MIB::cMsdpPeerRPFFailures

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.10.130.1.1.5.1.4

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Counter32

Access: read-only

Discontinuities in the value of this counter can occur at re-initialization of the management system, and at other times as indicated by the value of cMsdpPeerDiscontinuityTime.

What is cMsdpPeerRPFFailures?

Counts the number of Source-Active (SA) messages received from a peer that failed the Reverse Path Forwarding (RPF) check, indicating potential topology or routing issues.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.10.130.1.1.5.1.4
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> CISCO-IETF-MSDP-MIB::cMsdpPeerRPFFailures

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.10.130.1.1.5.1.4.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> CISCO-IETF-MSDP-MIB::cMsdpPeerRPFFailures.1

Start monitoring Cisco router running MSDP for inter-domain multicast with a free 30-day trial of IPNetwork Monitor. Create custom SNMP monitor using the CISCO-IETF-MSDP-MIB::cMsdpPeerRPFFailures OID value, configure state conditions and alerts, and monitor any Cisco router running MSDP for inter-domain multicast from a single console.

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Select a Cisco router running MSDP for inter-domain multicast 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 cMsdpPeerRPFFailures into the Find box to locate it in the OID tree, selecting the specific row/instance you want to monitor since this is a table column, then select it and click OK. The number of SA messages received from this peer which failed the Peer-RPF check. 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.
