What is cospfOpaqueAreaLsaCount?

This object reports the total count of Opaque LSAs, both area-scoped and AS-scoped as visible within this specific area, in the area's link-state database, the per-area counterpart to the AS-wide cospfOpaqueASLsaCount. It matters for scoping a database-consistency check down to a specific OSPF area rather than the whole autonomous system, useful when an admin suspects a problem is localized to one area rather than domain-wide. Comparing this count across all routers within a single area, rather than the whole AS, helps isolate whether an LSA sync issue is confined to that area specifically.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.10.99.2.1.1
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> CISCO-OSPF-MIB::cospfOpaqueAreaLsaCount

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.10.99.2.1.1.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> CISCO-OSPF-MIB::cospfOpaqueAreaLsaCount.1

SNMPv3 example:

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