etsysNacApplAuthenticationRequests

Module: ENTERASYS-NAC-APPLIANCE-MIB

OID (symbolic): ENTERASYS-NAC-APPLIANCE-MIB::etsysNacApplAuthenticationRequests

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.5624.1.2.73.1.1

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Access: read-only

Description: Represents the number of authentication requests made since the NAC was started.

What is etsysNacApplAuthenticationRequests?

This is a 64-bit counter tracking the total number of authentication requests the NAC Appliance has processed since it was started. Admins use it as the baseline denominator for authentication health, comparing it against etsysNacApplAuthenticationFailures to see what fraction of login attempts are failing on this appliance. For example, if the counter reads 48,200 requests since the last reboot while failures sit at only 12, the NAC's authentication path is healthy; a sudden flattening of this counter would instead signal that clients have stopped reaching the appliance.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.5624.1.2.73.1.1
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> ENTERASYS-NAC-APPLIANCE-MIB::etsysNacApplAuthenticationRequests

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.5624.1.2.73.1.1.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> ENTERASYS-NAC-APPLIANCE-MIB::etsysNacApplAuthenticationRequests.1

Create custom SNMP monitor using the ENTERASYS-NAC-APPLIANCE-MIB::etsysNacApplAuthenticationRequests OID value, configure state conditions and alerts, and monitor any Enterasys NAC Gateway/Controller appliance from a single console.

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Select an Enterasys NAC Gateway/Controller appliance 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 etsysNacApplAuthenticationRequests into the Find box to locate it in the OID tree, then select it and click OK. Represents the number of authentication requests made since the NAC was started. 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 Counter64-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.
