What is proxyMemUsage?

The amount of memory the proxy process itself is using, separate from other support processes running on the same host; an admin watches this to catch a proxy process leaking memory before it drags down the whole system.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.3.25.17.1.1
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> PROXY-MIB::proxyMemUsage

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.3.25.17.1.1.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> PROXY-MIB::proxyMemUsage.1

Start monitoring Internet proxy/cache servers, e.g. Squid-based caching proxies with a free 30-day trial of IPNetwork Monitor. Create custom SNMP monitor using the PROXY-MIB::proxyMemUsage OID value, configure state conditions and alerts, and monitor any Internet proxy/cache servers, e.g. Squid-based caching proxies from a single console.
