What is nshmemCurrentMcastConnections?

This gauge displays the current count of active multicast connections being maintained in the shared memory of a network switch module. Operators monitor this to track multicast traffic load and shared memory utilization in real-time. High values indicate significant multicast activity and help capacity planning for memory and connection resources.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.326.2.2.1.5.1.2.1.6
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> Fore-Switch-MIB::nshmemCurrentMcastConnections

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.326.2.2.1.5.1.2.1.6.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> Fore-Switch-MIB::nshmemCurrentMcastConnections.1
