rlPimInterfaceNeighborCount

Module: CISCOSB-PIM-MIB

OID (symbolic): CISCOSB-PIM-MIB::rlPimInterfaceNeighborCount

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.6.1.101.211.1.1.8

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Gauge32

Access: read-only

Description: The number of PIM neighbors on this interface.

What is rlPimInterfaceNeighborCount?

This read-only Gauge32 reports the number of PIM neighbors currently discovered on this interface. A drop in this value on a segment that normally has active PIM routers signals a lost adjacency. For example, this value dropping to zero on an interface that normally has one PIM neighbor indicates that adjacency has been lost.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.6.1.101.211.1.1.8
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> CISCOSB-PIM-MIB::rlPimInterfaceNeighborCount

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.6.1.101.211.1.1.8.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> CISCOSB-PIM-MIB::rlPimInterfaceNeighborCount.1

Start monitoring Cisco Small Business switch/router with a free 30-day trial of IPNetwork Monitor. Create custom SNMP monitor using the CISCOSB-PIM-MIB::rlPimInterfaceNeighborCount OID value, configure state conditions and alerts, and monitor any Cisco Small Business switch/router from a single console.

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Select a Cisco Small Business switch/router 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 rlPimInterfaceNeighborCount 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 PIM neighbors on this interface. 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 Gauge32-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.
