ospfSpfRuns

Module: RFC1248-MIB

OID (symbolic): RFC1248-MIB::ospfSpfRuns

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.13.2.1.4

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Counter

Access: read-only

Description: The number of times that the intra-area route table has been calculated using this area's link-state database. This is typically done using Dijkstra's algorithm.

What is ospfSpfRuns?

This counts how many times the intra-area route table has been recalculated (typically via Dijkstra's SPF algorithm) using this area's link-state database. A rapidly increasing count points to topology instability -- links flapping or routers going up and down -- forcing frequent SPF recalculations in that area.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.13.2.1.4
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> RFC1248-MIB::ospfSpfRuns

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.13.2.1.4.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> RFC1248-MIB::ospfSpfRuns.1
