hpifStatsExtRoamsTo

Module: HP-IF-EXT-MIB

OID (symbolic): HP-IF-EXT-MIB::hpifStatsExtRoamsTo

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.3.7.11.17.7.1.2.1.1.1.1.4

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Counter32

Access: read-only

Description: The number of clients which have roamed to this interface from another HP J8162A XL Access Controller Module since the last reboot of this HP J8162A XL Access Controller Module or similar device. External roams may indicate client traffic is being tunneled back through the original HP J8162A XL Access Controller Module.

What is hpifStatsExtRoamsTo?

This counter reports how many clients have roamed onto this interface from another, external access controller module since the last reboot. A rising count can indicate that client traffic is being tunneled back through the original access controller module rather than fully migrating. For example, a high external-roams-to count for one interface might prompt an admin to check whether inter-controller roaming is configured efficiently.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.3.7.11.17.7.1.2.1.1.1.1.4
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> HP-IF-EXT-MIB::hpifStatsExtRoamsTo

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.3.7.11.17.7.1.2.1.1.1.1.4.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> HP-IF-EXT-MIB::hpifStatsExtRoamsTo.1

Start monitoring HP ProCurve networking/wireless device (interface extensions, roaming stats) with a free 30-day trial of IPNetwork Monitor. Create custom SNMP monitor using the HP-IF-EXT-MIB::hpifStatsExtRoamsTo OID value, configure state conditions and alerts, and monitor any HP ProCurve networking/wireless device (interface extensions, roaming stats) from a single console.

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Select an HP ProCurve networking/wireless device (interface extensions, roaming stats) 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 hpifStatsExtRoamsTo 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. The number of clients which have roamed to this interface from another HP J8162A XL Access Controller Module since the last reboot of this HP J8162A XL Access Controller Module or similar device. 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 Counter32-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.
