Module: DNOS-DHCPCLIENT-PRIVATE-MIB

OID (symbolic): DNOS-DHCPCLIENT-PRIVATE-MIB::agentdhcp4ClientRetryCount

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.674.10895.5000.2.6132.1.1.100.1.1.1.10

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Counter32

Access: read-only

Description: The number of times the DHCP Client sends a DHCP REQUEST message before the server responds .

What is agentdhcp4ClientRetryCount?

This read-only Counter32 tracks how many times the DHCP client has sent a DHCPREQUEST message on this interface before receiving a response from the server. Admins use a high retry count to spot flaky connectivity or an unresponsive DHCP server that is causing lease negotiation delays. For example, a retry count of 5 suggests the DHCP server was slow or dropping requests before finally acknowledging the lease.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.674.10895.5000.2.6132.1.1.100.1.1.1.10
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> DNOS-DHCPCLIENT-PRIVATE-MIB::agentdhcp4ClientRetryCount

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.674.10895.5000.2.6132.1.1.100.1.1.1.10.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> DNOS-DHCPCLIENT-PRIVATE-MIB::agentdhcp4ClientRetryCount.1

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Select a Dell EMC network switch 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 agentdhcp4ClientRetryCount 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 times the DHCP Client sends a DHCP REQUEST message before the server responds . 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.
