otherPolicyFailureTrap

Module: IPSEC-SA-MON-MIB

OID (symbolic): IPSEC-SA-MON-MIB::otherPolicyFailureTrap

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.3.98.1.4.0.8

Node type: NOTIFICATION-TYPE

Description: Clear packets were found that should not have been sent to the entity in the clear. The total number of policy errors accumulated by the entity is sent, along with the source and destination addresses of the packet that triggered the trap.

Implementations SHOULD send one trap per source address pair (within a reasonable time period), rather than sending one trap per packet.

Examples

Send this trap to an SNMP manager — replace <manager> with the IP or hostname of your monitoring server (SNMPv2c):

snmptrap -v2c -c public <manager> '' IPSEC-SA-MON-MIB::otherPolicyFailureTrap
snmptrap -v2c -c public <manager> '' 1.3.6.1.3.98.1.4.0.8

Listen for incoming traps on the manager host (-f keeps it in the foreground, -Lo prints to stdout — useful for testing):

snmptrapd -f -Lo -c /dev/null authCommunity log public

Example snmptrapd log entry:

zoo11-linux.zoo [UDP: [192.168.30.111]:50074->[192.168.30.10]:162]:
  DISMAN-EVENT-MIB::sysUpTimeInstance = Timeticks: (391731610) 45 days, 8:08:36.10
  SNMPv2-MIB::snmpTrapOID.0 = OID: IPSEC-SA-MON-MIB::otherPolicyFailureTrap

SNMPv3 example:

snmptrap -v3 -l authPriv -u snmpv3user -a SHA -A "AuthPass1" -x AES -X "PrivPass1" <manager> '' IPSEC-SA-MON-MIB::otherPolicyFailureTrap
