ospfOriginateLsa

Module: OSPF-TRAP-MIB

OID (symbolic): OSPF-TRAP-MIB::ospfOriginateLsa

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.14.16.2.12

Node type: NOTIFICATION-TYPE

Description: An ospfOriginateLsa trap signifies that a new LSA has been originated by this router. This trap should not be invoked for simple refreshes of LSAs (which happens every 30 minutes), but instead will only be invoked when an LSA is (re)originated due to a topology change. Additionally, this trap does not include LSAs that are being flushed because they have reached MaxAge.

Examples

Send this trap to an SNMP manager — replace <manager> with the IP or hostname of your monitoring server (SNMPv2c):

snmptrap -v2c -c public <manager> '' OSPF-TRAP-MIB::ospfOriginateLsa
snmptrap -v2c -c public <manager> '' 1.3.6.1.2.1.14.16.2.12

Listen for incoming traps on the manager host (-f keeps it in the foreground, -Lo prints to stdout — useful for testing):

snmptrapd -f -Lo -c /dev/null authCommunity log public

Example snmptrapd log entry:

zoo11-linux.zoo [UDP: [192.168.30.111]:54639->[192.168.30.10]:162]:
  DISMAN-EVENT-MIB::sysUpTimeInstance = Timeticks: (405922671) 46 days, 23:33:46.71
