Module: CISCO-IKE-FLOW-MIB

OID (symbolic): CISCO-IKE-FLOW-MIB::cifIkeTunInP2ExchgInvalids

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.429.1.1.3.1.6

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Counter32

Access: read-only

Description: The total number of Phase-2 exchanges received and found to be invalid by this Phase-1 IKE Tunnel.

What is cifIkeTunInP2ExchgInvalids?

This counts Phase-2 exchanges received on this tunnel that failed validation outright, per its description, distinguishing malformed or unparseable proposals from ones that were merely policy-rejected. A nonzero and climbing value here points to an interoperability bug or corrupted packets with this specific peer rather than a simple policy mismatch. A tunnel showing 40 invalids out of 200 total InP2Exchgs means a fifth of all Phase-2 attempts on that link are structurally broken and worth escalating to the peer's vendor.
