mallocCalls
Module: COMPEX-IN3000
OID (symbolic): COMPEX-IN3000::mallocCalls
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.426.1.8.5
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: Counter

Description: Number of times malloc() has been called.
What is mallocCalls?
This counter tallies how many times the firmware's malloc() memory allocation function has been called since boot. An admin trends this alongside freeCalls to spot a growing gap between allocations and deallocations, which is a telltale sign of a memory leak in the running firmware. A mallocCalls count that keeps rising much faster than freeCalls over many hours would lead an admin to suspect a specific feature is leaking memory.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.426.1.8.5 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> COMPEX-IN3000::mallocCalls
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.426.1.8.5.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> COMPEX-IN3000::mallocCalls.1
