vsiLogicalIfRxCells

Module: CISCO-VSI-MASTER-MIB

OID (symbolic): CISCO-VSI-MASTER-MIB::vsiLogicalIfRxCells

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.162.1.3.1.6

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Counter32

Access: read-only

Description: The number of cells received via this logical interface as reported to the VSI master by the VSI slave.

What is vsiLogicalIfRxCells?

This read-only Counter32 object tracks the total number of ATM cells received on a given VSI logical interface, as reported by the slave. An administrator uses this counter to gauge inbound traffic volume on that logical interface and to detect if it has gone unexpectedly quiet or busy. For example, a logical interface whose vsiLogicalIfRxCells stops incrementing suggests inbound traffic has stopped, which is worth investigating even if the interface still shows as operationally active.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.162.1.3.1.6
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> CISCO-VSI-MASTER-MIB::vsiLogicalIfRxCells

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.162.1.3.1.6.1

Start monitoring Cisco MGX/BPX ATM switching platforms with a free 30-day trial of IPNetwork Monitor. Create custom SNMP monitor using the CISCO-VSI-MASTER-MIB::vsiLogicalIfRxCells OID value, configure state conditions and alerts, and monitor any Cisco MGX/BPX ATM switching platforms from a single console.

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Select a Cisco MGX/BPX ATM switching platform 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 vsiLogicalIfRxCells 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. The number of cells received via this logical interface as reported to the VSI master by the VSI slave. 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.
