Module: TUBS-IBR-LINUX-MIB
OID (symbolic): TUBS-IBR-LINUX-MIB::linuxLoadAvg5
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.1575.1.5.2.4

Description: The average system load during the last 5 minutes.
What is linuxLoadAvg5?
This read-only value reports the average system load over the last 5 minutes, matching the standard Unix 5-minute load average. Admins use it to see whether elevated load is a brief spike or a load pattern sustained over several minutes. For example, a 5-minute average that's much lower than the 1-minute average would indicate load just spiked recently rather than being a longer-running trend.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.1575.1.5.2.4 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> TUBS-IBR-LINUX-MIB::linuxLoadAvg5
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.1575.1.5.2.4.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> TUBS-IBR-LINUX-MIB::linuxLoadAvg5.1
