Module: IEEE8021X-PAE-MIB

OID (symbolic): IEEE8021X-PAE-MIB::ieee8021XEapolStartFramesRx

OID (numeric): 1.3.111.2.802.1.1.15.1.5.1.1.6

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Description: The number of EAPOL-Start frames that have been received by this PAE.

What is ieee8021XEapolStartFramesRx?

A packet counter of EAPOL-Start frames received on this port, i.e. how many times a connecting client has kicked off the 802.1X authentication handshake; a rapidly climbing count with no matching successful authentications can indicate a client stuck in a retry loop.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.111.2.802.1.1.15.1.5.1.1.6
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> IEEE8021X-PAE-MIB::ieee8021XEapolStartFramesRx

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.111.2.802.1.1.15.1.5.1.1.6.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> IEEE8021X-PAE-MIB::ieee8021XEapolStartFramesRx.1
