What is pfStateSearches?
A running total of lookups performed against the state table, incrementing on every packet pf checks against existing tracked connections. It's mainly useful as a load indicator - a high rate signals a busy firewall doing a lot of per-packet state matching.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.30155.1.3.2 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> OPENBSD-PF-MIB::pfStateSearches
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.30155.1.3.2.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> OPENBSD-PF-MIB::pfStateSearches.1
SNMPv3 example:
snmpget -v3 -l authPriv -u snmpv3-user -a SHA -A "AuthPassword1" -x AES -X "PrivPassword1" <target> pfStateSearches.1
