vmVQPQueries

Module: CISCO-VLAN-MEMBERSHIP-MIB

OID (symbolic): CISCO-VLAN-MEMBERSHIP-MIB::vmVQPQueries

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.68.1.3.1

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Access: read-only

Description: The total number of VQP requests sent by this device to all VMPS since last system re-initialization.

What is vmVQPQueries?

This Counter32 tracks the total number of VQP requests this device has sent to all VMPS servers since the last system re-initialization. An administrator monitors this to gauge how actively a switch is relying on dynamic VLAN assignment via VQP for its ports. For example, a steadily increasing count confirms ports on this switch are actively querying VMPS servers to determine VLAN membership.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.68.1.3.1
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> CISCO-VLAN-MEMBERSHIP-MIB::vmVQPQueries

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.68.1.3.1.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> CISCO-VLAN-MEMBERSHIP-MIB::vmVQPQueries.1

Start monitoring Cisco Catalyst switches (VMPS/dynamic VLAN assignment) with a free 30-day trial of IPNetwork Monitor. Create custom SNMP monitor using the CISCO-VLAN-MEMBERSHIP-MIB::vmVQPQueries OID value, configure state conditions and alerts, and monitor any Cisco Catalyst switches (VMPS/dynamic VLAN assignment) from a single console.

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Select a Cisco Catalyst switch (VMPS/dynamic VLAN assignment) 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 vmVQPQueries into the Find box to locate it in the OID tree, then select it and click OK. The total number of VQP requests sent by this device to all VMPS since last system re-initialization. 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 sharply between polls relative to its normal baseline, since an unexpected spike often reflects a real change in traffic or activity. Click Finish to create the monitor; you can adjust any parameter later.
