Module: H3C-SMLK-MIB

Description: Number of transmitted flush messages.

What is h3cSmlkFlushCount?

This counter tracks the number of flush messages transmitted by this port to notify other switches to clear their MAC address tables after a Smart Link failover. Admins use it to gauge how often failovers or topology changes have occurred on this link, since each flush message corresponds to a switchover event. A rapidly increasing flush count on one port would indicate that uplink is flapping and repeatedly triggering failovers.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.2011.10.2.147.1.2.1.4
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> H3C-SMLK-MIB::h3cSmlkFlushCount

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.2011.10.2.147.1.2.1.4.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> H3C-SMLK-MIB::h3cSmlkFlushCount.1

Start monitoring H3C access switch, ring/dual-uplink topology (Smart Link redundancy) with a free 30-day trial of IPNetwork Monitor. Create custom SNMP monitor using the H3C-SMLK-MIB::h3cSmlkFlushCount OID value, configure state conditions and alerts, and monitor any H3C access switch, ring/dual-uplink topology (Smart Link redundancy) from a single console.

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Select an H3C access switch, ring/dual-uplink topology (Smart Link redundancy) 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 h3cSmlkFlushCount 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. It reports the number of transmitted flush messages. 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.
