Description: Number of pfsync packets discarded due to having a TTL less than 255.

What is pfsyncPktDiscardsForBadTtl?

Counts pfsync packets discarded for having a TTL less than 255, a security check since pfsync traffic is expected to stay on a directly-connected link. A nonzero count can indicate pfsync packets being routed through extra hops, which shouldn't happen in a correct failover setup.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.30155.1.11.4
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> OPENBSD-PF-MIB::pfsyncPktDiscardsForBadTtl

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.30155.1.11.4.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> OPENBSD-PF-MIB::pfsyncPktDiscardsForBadTtl.1

SNMPv3 example:

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