Description: Number of paths in the local RIB.
What is stnBgpPathCount?
This counts the total number of BGP paths (as opposed to distinct prefixes) stored in the local RIB, including multiple paths to the same destination from different peers. Admins compare it against stnBgpPrefixCount to gauge how much path diversity or redundancy exists per prefix. A pathCount much larger than prefixCount suggests many prefixes have multiple candidate paths, typical of multi-homed peering.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.3551.2.12.5.1.3 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> STN-BGP-MIB::stnBgpPathCount
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.3551.2.12.5.1.3.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> STN-BGP-MIB::stnBgpPathCount.1
