ipsecChannelCurrentSAs

Module: IPSEC-TUN-MON-MIB

OID (symbolic): IPSEC-TUN-MON-MIB::ipsecChannelCurrentSAs

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.3.1010.1.1.1.1.1.4

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Gauge32

Access: read-only

Description: The number of IKE SAs that are currently active that make up this channel.

This value may be 0 if the channel has not yet been set up, or the implementation does not require the existence of IKE SAs for the channel to exist, or if the channel is considered a permanent entry in the table by the implementation.

This value should not include SA establishment attempts in progress.

What is ipsecChannelCurrentSAs?

For one row of the IPsec channel table, the number of IKE SAs currently active for that specific channel; it can legitimately read 0 if the channel hasn't finished negotiating yet or the implementation treats it as a permanent entry that doesn't require a live IKE SA. Admins check this per-channel value to confirm a specific VPN peer actually has a working IKE session, not just a row in the table.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> IPSEC-TUN-MON-MIB::ipsecChannelCurrentSAs

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.3.1010.1.1.1.1.1.4.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> IPSEC-TUN-MON-MIB::ipsecChannelCurrentSAs.1
