swCpuAction

Module: RESOURCE-MIB

OID (symbolic): RESOURCE-MIB::swCpuAction

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.1588.2.1.1.1.26.5

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-only

What is swCpuAction?

This object specifies what action the device takes when CPU usage exceeds its configured threshold: none, raslog (write to the system log), snmp (send a trap), or raslogandSnmp (both), defaulting to none. Admins configure this to ensure they're actually notified when CPU usage becomes excessive, rather than silently exceeding the limit with no alert. Setting swCpuAction to raslogandSnmp(3) ensures both a log entry is written and an SNMP trap is sent whenever CPU usage crosses swCpuUsageLimit.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.1588.2.1.1.1.26.5
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> RESOURCE-MIB::swCpuAction

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.1588.2.1.1.1.26.5.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> RESOURCE-MIB::swCpuAction.1
