Description: The value of the cache_mem parameter in MB

What is cacheMemMaxSize?

Reports the configured value of Squid's cache_mem parameter, in MB -- the amount of RAM Squid is allowed to use for in-memory object caching. An admin raises this on a proxy with spare RAM to improve hit rates for frequently requested objects.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.3495.1.2.5.1
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> SQUID-MIB::cacheMemMaxSize

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.3495.1.2.5.1.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> SQUID-MIB::cacheMemMaxSize.1
