What is hpicfDhcpClientPktAuthFailed?

This is a running counter of DHCP packets dropped because they failed authentication. Admins watch this for a rising count, which indicates either a misconfigured key chain or a rogue or misconfigured DHCP server sending unauthenticated or wrongly-keyed responses. A sudden jump in hpicfDhcpClientPktAuthFailed after changing the key chain configuration would suggest the new key doesn't match what the DHCP server is using.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.14.11.5.1.57.1.5.1.4
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> HP-ICF-DHCPCLIENT-MIB::hpicfDhcpClientPktAuthFailed

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.14.11.5.1.57.1.5.1.4.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> HP-ICF-DHCPCLIENT-MIB::hpicfDhcpClientPktAuthFailed.1
