tpSysMonitorCpu5Seconds

Module: TPLINK-SYSMONITOR-MIB

OID (symbolic): TPLINK-SYSMONITOR-MIB::tpSysMonitorCpu5Seconds

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.11863.6.4.1.1.1.1.2

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-only

Description: Displays the CPU utilization in 5 seconds.

What is tpSysMonitorCpu5Seconds?

tpSysMonitorCpu5Seconds reports the CPU utilization percentage, 0 to 100, of a given switch unit averaged over the last 5 seconds. Admins use this short-window figure to see near-real-time spikes in processor load that longer averages would smooth out. For example, a reading of 95 would flag a sudden CPU spike on that unit worth investigating immediately.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.11863.6.4.1.1.1.1.2
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> TPLINK-SYSMONITOR-MIB::tpSysMonitorCpu5Seconds

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.11863.6.4.1.1.1.1.2.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> TPLINK-SYSMONITOR-MIB::tpSysMonitorCpu5Seconds.1

SNMPv3 example:

snmpget -v3 -l authPriv -u snmpv3-user -a SHA -A "AuthPassword1" -x AES -X "PrivPassword1" <target> tpSysMonitorCpu5Seconds.1

Start monitoring TP-Link managed switch (CPU/memory resource-utilization status) with a free 30-day trial of IPNetwork Monitor. Create custom SNMP monitor using the TPLINK-SYSMONITOR-MIB::tpSysMonitorCpu5Seconds OID value, configure state conditions and alerts, and monitor any TP-Link managed switch (CPU/memory resource-utilization status) from a single console.

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Select a TP-Link managed switch (CPU/memory resource-utilization status) as the target host to create a monitor — the SNMP service should be up and running on it. Click New Monitor, then check SNMP Custom on the Favorites tab, click Next, and confirm the host. On the next page, click Select... to open the built-in SNMP MIB Browser and type tpSysMonitorCpu5Seconds into the Find box to locate it in the OID tree, selecting the specific row/instance you want to monitor since this is a table column, then select it and click OK. Displays the CPU utilization in 5 seconds. On the monitor's Main parameters page you can set the target's SNMP port (default 161), credentials, polling interval, and other settings — see the SNMP Monitor help for details. On the State conditions and Alerting tabs, configure when the monitor should change state and trigger an alert; since this is an INTEGER-type OID, Value bounds is the most useful condition here — trigger an alert if utilization exceeds 85%, a common warning threshold before sustained high load affects performance. Click Finish to create the monitor; you can adjust any parameter later.
