What is pimRPState?
This deprecated object indicates whether a Protocol Independent Multicast Rendezvous Point (RP) is currently operational (up) or not responding (down). The RP is a critical device in PIM networks that acts as a meeting point for multicast traffic sources and receivers. Network administrators historically used this status to quickly check the health of their multicast infrastructure, though newer management systems now prefer other monitoring methods.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.3.61.1.1.5.1.3 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> PIM-MIB::pimRPState
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.3.61.1.1.5.1.3.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> PIM-MIB::pimRPState.1
SNMPv3 example:
snmpget -v3 -l authPriv -u snmpv3-user -a SHA -A "AuthPassword1" -x AES -X "PrivPassword1" <target> pimRPState.1
