hpnicfDot3OamInformationTx

Module: HPN-ICF-EFM-COMMON-MIB

OID (symbolic): HPN-ICF-EFM-COMMON-MIB::hpnicfDot3OamInformationTx

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.14.11.15.2.42.3.1.4.1.1

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Counter32

Access: read-only

Description: A count of the number of Information OAMPDUs transmitted on this interface.

An Information OAMPDU is indicated by a valid frame with (1) destination MAC address equal to that of the reserved MAC address for Slow Protocols (See 43B of [802.3ah]), (2) a lengthOrType field equal to the reserved type for Slow Protocols, (3) a Slow Protocols subtype equal to that of the subtype reserved for OAM, and (4) an OAMPDU code equals the OAM Information code.

Discontinuities of this counter can occur at re-initialization of the management system, and at other times as indicated by the value of the ifCounterDiscontinuityTime.

What is hpnicfDot3OamInformationTx?

This counts the number of Ethernet OAM Information OAMPDUs (the periodic discovery/keepalive frames) transmitted on this interface. Admins expect this counter to increment steadily on an OAM-enabled link; a stalled count can indicate the local OAM process has stopped sending discovery frames.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.14.11.15.2.42.3.1.4.1.1
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> HPN-ICF-EFM-COMMON-MIB::hpnicfDot3OamInformationTx

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.14.11.15.2.42.3.1.4.1.1.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> HPN-ICF-EFM-COMMON-MIB::hpnicfDot3OamInformationTx.1

Start monitoring HP/H3C Comware switch or router (802.3ah Ethernet OAM, first-mile link) with a free 30-day trial of IPNetwork Monitor. Create custom SNMP monitor using the HPN-ICF-EFM-COMMON-MIB::hpnicfDot3OamInformationTx OID value, configure state conditions and alerts, and monitor any HP/H3C Comware switch or router (802.3ah Ethernet OAM, first-mile link) from a single console.

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Select an HP/H3C Comware switch or router (802.3ah Ethernet OAM, first-mile link) 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 hpnicfDot3OamInformationTx 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 a count of the number of Information OAMPDUs transmitted on this interface. 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.
