What is hardwarememoryusage?

This value reports the percentage of the device's total memory that is currently in use. Admins watch it for memory pressure that could precede instability or dropped connections, especially on devices with fixed, limited RAM. For example, a reading climbing from 60 to 95 over a day might prompt an admin to check for a memory leak or reduce the number of active sessions or tunnels.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.2972.2.3.4
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> NETWORK-ALCHEMY-HARDWARE-MIB::hardwarememoryusage

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.2972.2.3.4.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> NETWORK-ALCHEMY-HARDWARE-MIB::hardwarememoryusage.1

SNMPv3 example:

snmpget -v3 -l authPriv -u snmpv3-user -a SHA -A "AuthPassword1" -x AES -X "PrivPassword1" <target> hardwarememoryusage.1
