Module: CISCO-IPSEC-SIGNALING-MIB

OID (symbolic): CISCO-IPSEC-SIGNALING-MIB::cisgIpsSgGlobalInOctets

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.438.1.1.1.1.4

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

What is cisgIpsSgGlobalInOctets?

This Counter64 totals the octets received across all currently and previously active Phase-1 control tunnels, per its description, giving an aggregate measure of inbound control-plane (not data-plane) traffic volume for IKE signaling on this device. It matters for capacity planning of the control-plane processing load itself, distinct from the encrypted data traffic those tunnels protect. A sudden spike in this counter without a corresponding rise in active tunnel count could indicate excessive rekeying or retransmission activity rather than legitimate new connections.
