ospfPacketType
Module: OSPF-TRAP-MIB
OID (symbolic): OSPF-TRAP-MIB::ospfPacketType
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.14.16.1.3
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: INTEGER
Access: read-only
Description: OSPF packet types. When the last value of a trap using this object is needed, but no traps of that type have been sent, this value pertaining to this object should be returned as nullPacket.
What is ospfPacketType?
This OID holds the type of OSPF (Open Shortest Path First) packet in diagnostic traps—for example, hello packets or link-state packets. When no trap has been generated, it returns a null value. A network engineer troubleshooting OSPF routing issues would examine this to understand which type of routing packet caused the error.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.14.16.1.3 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> OSPF-TRAP-MIB::ospfPacketType
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.14.16.1.3.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> OSPF-TRAP-MIB::ospfPacketType.1
