alarmValue

Module: RMON-MIB

OID (symbolic): RMON-MIB::alarmValue

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.16.3.1.1.5

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Integer32

Access: read-only

Description: The value of the statistic during the last sampling period. For example, if the sample type is deltaValue, this value will be the difference between the samples at the beginning and end of the period. If the sample type is absoluteValue, this value will be the sampled value at the end of the period.

This is the value that is compared with the rising and falling thresholds.

The value during the current sampling period is not made available until the period is completed and will remain available until the next period completes.

What is alarmValue?

This read-only object contains the most recently measured value of a monitored network statistic (such as CPU usage or interface errors) during a sampling interval. The value is compared against configured rising and falling thresholds to trigger alarms when limits are exceeded. An operator views this to understand the current state of a monitored metric and determine if threshold-based alerts are working correctly.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.16.3.1.1.5
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> RMON-MIB::alarmValue

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.16.3.1.1.5.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> RMON-MIB::alarmValue.1

SNMPv3 example:

snmpget -v3 -l authPriv -u snmpv3-user -a SHA -A "AuthPassword1" -x AES -X "PrivPassword1" <target> alarmValue.1
