What is lowpanInReceives?

Counts every 6LoWPAN datagram received on this node, including corrupted or errored ones, giving a baseline traffic volume to compare against error counters like lowpanInHdrErrors.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.30982.1.3.1.1.2
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> JACOBS-LOWPAN-MIB::lowpanInReceives

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.30982.1.3.1.1.2.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> JACOBS-LOWPAN-MIB::lowpanInReceives.1

Start monitoring Vendor-neutral IETF standard (6LoWPAN/IEEE 802.15.4 wireless sensor node or IoT gateway) with a free 30-day trial of IPNetwork Monitor. Create custom SNMP monitor using the JACOBS-LOWPAN-MIB::lowpanInReceives OID value, configure state conditions and alerts, and monitor any Vendor-neutral IETF standard (6LoWPAN/IEEE 802.15.4 wireless sensor node or IoT gateway) from a single console.

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Select a device implementing JACOBS-LOWPAN-MIB as the target host to create a monitor — the SNMP service should be up and running on it. Click New Monitor, then check SNMP Custom on the Favorites tab, click Next, and confirm the host. On the next page, click Select... to open the built-in SNMP MIB Browser and type lowpanInReceives into the Find box to locate it in the OID tree, then select it and click OK. The total number of 6LoWPAN datagrams received, including those received in error. On the monitor's Main parameters page you can set the target's SNMP port (default 161), credentials, polling interval, and other settings — see the SNMP Monitor help for details. On the State conditions and Alerting tabs, configure when the monitor should change state and trigger an alert; since this is a Counter32-type OID, Value bounds is the most useful condition here — trigger an alert if the counter increases between polls, since a rising count of errors, failures, or discards often points to a real underlying problem. Click Finish to create the monitor; you can adjust any parameter later.
