alarmConditionNotInList

Module: DNS-TRAPS-MIB

OID (symbolic): DNS-TRAPS-MIB::alarmConditionNotInList

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.1166.7.5.2.20

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Integer32

Access: read-only

Description: Alarm which occurs when a clear condition command is issued and there is no such condition in the current condition list. This is a counter for the trap 20.

What is alarmConditionNotInList?

This Integer32 counter increments whenever a 'clear condition' command is issued for a condition that is not actually present in the device's current condition list, and it doubles as the counter backing trap 20. Admins watch it to catch management or scripting errors where an NMS or operator tries to clear an alarm condition that was never set or has already cleared. For example, a script that blindly clears a set of predefined condition codes on startup would drive this counter up if some of those conditions were never active.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.1166.7.5.2.20
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> DNS-TRAPS-MIB::alarmConditionNotInList

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.1166.7.5.2.20.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> DNS-TRAPS-MIB::alarmConditionNotInList.1

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Select a DNS server appliance (vendor trap template, Motorola Connected Home Solutions origin) 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 alarmConditionNotInList into the Find box to locate it in the OID tree, then select it and click OK. It reports the alarm which occurs when a clear condition command is issued and there is no such condition in the current condition list. 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 an Integer32-type OID, Value bounds is the most useful condition here — trigger an alert if the value drifts significantly from its normal baseline, since an unexpected change often points to a real underlying issue. Click Finish to create the monitor; you can adjust any parameter later.
