dfl2500SysForwardedBits

Module: DFL2500-MIB

OID (symbolic): DFL2500-MIB::dfl2500SysForwardedBits

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.171.20.1.5.1.2.1.2

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Counter32

Access: read-only

Description: The number of bits forwarded through the gateway.

What is dfl2500SysForwardedBits?

Running total of bits forwarded through the firewall since boot or since the counter last wrapped, used to graph throughput. Because it is only a 32-bit counter it wraps in well under an hour on a fast link, so the 64-bit sibling dfl2500SysHCForwardedBits should be used for high-speed monitoring instead.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.171.20.1.5.1.2.1.2
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> DFL2500-MIB::dfl2500SysForwardedBits

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.171.20.1.5.1.2.1.2.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> DFL2500-MIB::dfl2500SysForwardedBits.1

Start monitoring D-Link firewall/UTM appliances with a free 30-day trial of IPNetwork Monitor. Create custom SNMP monitor using the DFL2500-MIB::dfl2500SysForwardedBits OID value, configure state conditions and alerts, and monitor any D-Link firewall/UTM appliances from a single console.

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Select a D-Link firewall/UTM appliance 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 dfl2500SysForwardedBits into the Find box to locate it in the OID tree, then select it and click OK. The number of bits forwarded through the gateway. 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.
