dsmonAggControlChanges

Module: DSMON-MIB

OID (symbolic): DSMON-MIB::dsmonAggControlChanges

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.16.26.1.1.3

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Counter32

Access: read-only

Description: This object counts the number of times the value of the dsmonAggControlLocked object has changed. A management station can use this object to detect if counters in the DSMON data tables (e.g., dsmonStatsEntry) have been deleted and recreated between polls.

This object shall be incremented by one each time the dsmonAggControlLocked object changes from 'false' to 'true', or from 'true' to 'false'.

What is dsmonAggControlChanges?

Counts how many times dsmonAggControlLocked has flipped between true and false; an admin polls this to detect whether the whole DSMON data set has been torn down and rebuilt between two polls.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.16.26.1.1.3
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> DSMON-MIB::dsmonAggControlChanges

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.16.26.1.1.3.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> DSMON-MIB::dsmonAggControlChanges.1

Start monitoring RMON probe/DiffServ-aware router or switch (DSCP monitoring, vendor-neutral IETF standard RFC 3287) with a free 30-day trial of IPNetwork Monitor. Create custom SNMP monitor using the DSMON-MIB::dsmonAggControlChanges OID value, configure state conditions and alerts, and monitor any RMON probe/DiffServ-aware router or switch (DSCP monitoring, vendor-neutral IETF standard RFC 3287) from a single console.

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Select an RMON probe/DiffServ-aware router or switch (DSCP monitoring, vendor-neutral IETF standard RFC 3287) 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 dsmonAggControlChanges into the Find box to locate it in the OID tree, then select it and click OK. This object counts the number of times the value of the dsmonAggControlLocked object has changed. 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.
