etsysLinkFlapIntfLinkdownCountCurrent

Module: ENTERASYS-LINK-FLAP-MIB

OID (symbolic): ENTERASYS-LINK-FLAP-MIB::etsysLinkFlapIntfLinkdownCountCurrent

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.5624.1.2.52.1.2.1.1.8

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Gauge32

Access: read-only

Description: The current number of link state transitions accrued during the current monitor interval. This information is always available and current. Maintaining the value of this object across agent reboots is NOT RECOMMENDED.

What is etsysLinkFlapIntfLinkdownCountCurrent?

This read-only gauge reports the number of link state transitions this interface has accrued so far during the current monitoring interval. Admins watch it in near-real time to see how close a port is to tripping its etsysLinkFlapIntfCountThreshold before the configured actions fire. For example, seeing this value climb to 4 out of a threshold of 5 within the interval warns an admin that the port is on the verge of being flagged as flapping.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.5624.1.2.52.1.2.1.1.8
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> ENTERASYS-LINK-FLAP-MIB::etsysLinkFlapIntfLinkdownCountCurrent

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.5624.1.2.52.1.2.1.1.8.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> ENTERASYS-LINK-FLAP-MIB::etsysLinkFlapIntfLinkdownCountCurrent.1

Start monitoring Enterasys Networks switch (legacy, later Extreme Networks) (Link Flap Detection) with a free 30-day trial of IPNetwork Monitor. Create custom SNMP monitor using the ENTERASYS-LINK-FLAP-MIB::etsysLinkFlapIntfLinkdownCountCurrent OID value, configure state conditions and alerts, and monitor any Enterasys Networks switch (legacy, later Extreme Networks) (Link Flap Detection) from a single console.

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Select an Enterasys Networks switch (legacy, later Extreme Networks) (Link Flap Detection) 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 etsysLinkFlapIntfLinkdownCountCurrent 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 current number of link state transitions accrued during the current monitor interval. 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 Gauge32-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 (in link state transitions), 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.
