hwBufferCurrentUsed
Module: HUAWEI-MEMORY-MIB
OID (symbolic): HUAWEI-MEMORY-MIB::hwBufferCurrentUsed
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.2011.6.3.5.2.1.4
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: Integer32
Access: read-only
Description: The object indicates the used number of the buffer currently.
What is hwBufferCurrentUsed?
This read-only value reports the current number of buffers in use within this buffer pool on the device. Admins monitor it against hwBufferCurrentTotal to detect buffer pool exhaustion, which can cause packet drops on devices that use buffer pools for switching or routing. For example, hwBufferCurrentUsed approaching hwBufferCurrentTotal would warn an admin that the device is close to running out of buffers for that pool.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.2011.6.3.5.2.1.4 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> HUAWEI-MEMORY-MIB::hwBufferCurrentUsed
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.2011.6.3.5.2.1.4.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> HUAWEI-MEMORY-MIB::hwBufferCurrentUsed.1
SNMPv3 example:
snmpget -v3 -l authPriv -u snmpv3-user -a SHA -A "AuthPassword1" -x AES -X "PrivPassword1" <target> hwBufferCurrentUsed.1
