What is parDhcpTotalNoOfReleases?
This counter tracks the total number of DHCPRELEASE messages the server has received from clients since it started, indicating clients voluntarily giving up their leased IP addresses. Admins use it to understand how often clients are cleanly releasing addresses rather than letting leases expire. For example, a low release count relative to total leases might suggest most clients disconnect abruptly rather than releasing addresses gracefully.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.311.1.3.1.4 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> DHCP-MIB::parDhcpTotalNoOfReleases
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.311.1.3.1.4.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> DHCP-MIB::parDhcpTotalNoOfReleases.1
