mplsLdpEntityStatsSessionAttempts

Module: MPLS-LDP-STD-MIB

OID (symbolic): MPLS-LDP-STD-MIB::mplsLdpEntityStatsSessionAttempts

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.10.166.4.1.2.4.1.1

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Counter32

Access: read-only

Description: A count of the Session Initialization messages which were sent or received by this LDP Entity and were NAK'd. In other words, this counter counts the number of session initializations that failed.

Discontinuities in the value of this counter can occur at re-initialization of the management system, and at other times as indicated by the value of mplsLdpEntityDiscontinuityTime.

What is mplsLdpEntityStatsSessionAttempts?

This OID counts session Initialization messages sent or received by this LDP entity that were NAK'd, i.e., failed session-establishment attempts. Admins watch this counter to detect an entity that's repeatedly failing to establish LDP sessions with its peer.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.10.166.4.1.2.4.1.1
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> MPLS-LDP-STD-MIB::mplsLdpEntityStatsSessionAttempts

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.10.166.4.1.2.4.1.1.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> MPLS-LDP-STD-MIB::mplsLdpEntityStatsSessionAttempts.1

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Select a device implementing MPLS-LDP-STD-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 mplsLdpEntityStatsSessionAttempts into the Find box to locate it in the OID tree, selecting the specific row/instance you want to monitor since this is a table column, then select it and click OK. It reports a count of the Session Initialization messages which were sent or received by this LDP Entity and were NAK'd. 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.
