eqSonetStatsLineApsCount

Module: EQUIPE-SONET-MIB

OID (symbolic): EQUIPE-SONET-MIB::eqSonetStatsLineApsCount

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.5022.3.3.1.3

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Counter32

Access: read-only

Description: The number of times the service has switched from the working to the protect line.

What is eqSonetStatsLineApsCount?

Counts how many times this SONET port's traffic has switched from the working line to the protection line. Frequent switches indicate an unstable working line, so admins watch this counter to decide whether a protected circuit is actually flapping between working and protect rather than staying stable. A port showing dozens of switches per day via eqSonetStatsLineApsCount would prompt an admin to investigate the working line itself instead of relying on protection to mask the problem.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.5022.3.3.1.3
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> EQUIPE-SONET-MIB::eqSonetStatsLineApsCount

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.5022.3.3.1.3.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> EQUIPE-SONET-MIB::eqSonetStatsLineApsCount.1

SNMPv3 example:

snmpget -v3 -l authPriv -u snmpv3-user -a SHA -A "AuthPassword1" -x AES -X "PrivPassword1" <target> eqSonetStatsLineApsCount.1
