totalTunnels
Module: IPSEC-TUN-MON-MIB
OID (symbolic): IPSEC-TUN-MON-MIB::totalTunnels
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.3.1010.1.2.2.2
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: Counter32
Access: read-only
Description: The total number of tunnels created by the entity since system boot.
Tunnel creation is defined as the addition of a row to the tunnel table, whether an IPsec SA was created at the same time or not.
What is totalTunnels?
A running count, since boot, of every IPsec tunnel ever created, incremented each time a row is added to the tunnel table regardless of whether a phase-2 SA existed at creation time. It's a lifetime tunnel-churn counter useful for spotting a site that keeps rebuilding tunnels instead of holding them up.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.3.1010.1.2.2.2 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> IPSEC-TUN-MON-MIB::totalTunnels
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.3.1010.1.2.2.2.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> IPSEC-TUN-MON-MIB::totalTunnels.1
