What is bigipFipsDeviceError?
This notification fires when the F5 load balancer detects a failure in its FIPS-compliant encryption hardware module. Receiving this alert means secure operations may be compromised because the encryption hardware is not working. An operator treats this as urgent and escalates to swap out the faulty encryption card.
Examples
Send this trap to an SNMP manager — replace <manager> with the IP or hostname of your monitoring server (SNMPv2c):
snmptrap -v2c -c public <manager> '' F5-BIGIP-COMMON-MIB::bigipFipsDeviceError snmptrap -v2c -c public <manager> '' 1.3.6.1.4.1.3375.2.4.0.152
Listen for incoming traps on the manager host (-f keeps it in the foreground, -Lo prints to stdout — useful for testing):
snmptrapd -f -Lo -c /dev/null authCommunity log public
