What is idsPingofdeath?
This counter tracks the total number of Ping of Death attacks the Topsec IDS has detected, a technique that sends oversized or malformed ICMP echo request packets to crash vulnerable systems. An admin monitors this counter as a legacy-threat indicator, since modern operating systems are largely immune to this older exploit. For example, a nonzero idsPingofdeath count might reflect an automated scanning tool testing many possible legacy vulnerabilities rather than a targeted attack.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.14331.5.5.1.11.10 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> TOS-IDS::idsPingofdeath
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.14331.5.5.1.11.10.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> TOS-IDS::idsPingofdeath.1
