pfLimitStates
Module: OPENBSD-PF-MIB
OID (symbolic): OPENBSD-PF-MIB::pfLimitStates
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.30155.1.6.1
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: Unsigned32
Access: read-only
Description: The maximum number of entries in the memory pool used by state table entries (filter rules that specify 'keep state').
What is pfLimitStates?
The configured maximum number of entries pf's memory pool will allow in the state table, applying to rules using 'keep state'. If pfStateCount approaches this limit, new connections start getting dropped (reflected in pfCntStateInsert), so admins raise this value on busy firewalls.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.30155.1.6.1 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> OPENBSD-PF-MIB::pfLimitStates
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.30155.1.6.1.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> OPENBSD-PF-MIB::pfLimitStates.1
