What is cIscsiInstSsnFailures?

Counts the number of iSCSI session failures that have occurred on this instance, useful for tracking connection reliability.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.10.94.1.2.1.1.10
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> CISCO-ISCSI-MIB::cIscsiInstSsnFailures

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.10.94.1.2.1.1.10.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> CISCO-ISCSI-MIB::cIscsiInstSsnFailures.1

SNMPv3 example:

snmpget -v3 -l authPriv -u snmpv3-user -a SHA -A "AuthPassword1" -x AES -X "PrivPassword1" <target> cIscsiInstSsnFailures.1

Start monitoring Cisco iSCSI-capable storage-networking equipment with a free 30-day trial of IPNetwork Monitor. Create custom SNMP monitor using the CISCO-ISCSI-MIB::cIscsiInstSsnFailures OID value, configure state conditions and alerts, and monitor any Cisco iSCSI-capable storage-networking equipment from a single console.

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Select a Cisco iSCSI-capable storage-networking equipment 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 cIscsiInstSsnFailures 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. This object counts the number of times a session belonging to this instance has been failed. 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.
