snmpSshtmSessionCloses

Module: SNMP-SSH-TM-MIB

OID (symbolic): SNMP-SSH-TM-MIB::snmpSshtmSessionCloses

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.189.1.1.2

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Counter32

Access: read-only

Description: The number of times a closeSession() request has been executed as an SSH client, whether it succeeded or failed.

What is snmpSshtmSessionCloses?

This Counter32 counts every time this device, acting as an SSH client, has executed a closeSession() request, regardless of whether it succeeded or failed. Admins compare this to snmpSshtmSessionOpens to see whether SSH sessions are being properly torn down after use, since a growing gap between opens and closes could indicate leaked or lingering sessions. For example, a persistent gap between the opens and closes counters over time might prompt an admin to investigate whether sessions are failing to close cleanly.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.189.1.1.2
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> SNMP-SSH-TM-MIB::snmpSshtmSessionCloses

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.189.1.1.2.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> SNMP-SSH-TM-MIB::snmpSshtmSessionCloses.1

SNMPv3 example:

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