ctAgentDhcpSnoopingMacVerifyFailures

Module: CT-FASTPATH-DHCPSNOOPING-MIB

OID (symbolic): CT-FASTPATH-DHCPSNOOPING-MIB::ctAgentDhcpSnoopingMacVerifyFailures

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.52.4.2.35.1.1.7.1.1

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Counter32

Access: read-only

Description: This object indicates the number of failure verifications of client mac address with source mac address

What is ctAgentDhcpSnoopingMacVerifyFailures?

This read-only Counter32 tracks how many times a DHCP message's source MAC address failed to match the client hardware address field, when MAC verification is enabled. An administrator monitors this to detect ongoing spoofing attempts or misconfigured devices sending inconsistent MAC information. For example, a steadily increasing ctAgentDhcpSnoopingMacVerifyFailures count on one port would prompt the admin to physically investigate the device connected there.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.52.4.2.35.1.1.7.1.1
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> CT-FASTPATH-DHCPSNOOPING-MIB::ctAgentDhcpSnoopingMacVerifyFailures

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.52.4.2.35.1.1.7.1.1.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> CT-FASTPATH-DHCPSNOOPING-MIB::ctAgentDhcpSnoopingMacVerifyFailures.1

Create custom SNMP monitor using the CT-FASTPATH-DHCPSNOOPING-MIB::ctAgentDhcpSnoopingMacVerifyFailures OID value, configure state conditions and alerts, and monitor any Cabletron/Enterasys FastPath switch (DHCP snooping) from a single console.

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Select a Cabletron/Enterasys FastPath switch (DHCP snooping) 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 ctAgentDhcpSnoopingMacVerifyFailures 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. This object indicates the number of failure verifications of client mac address with source mac address. 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 between polls, since a rising count of errors, failures, or discards often points to a real underlying problem. Click Finish to create the monitor; you can adjust any parameter later.
