udpHCOutDatagrams
Module: UDP-MIB
OID (symbolic): UDP-MIB::udpHCOutDatagrams
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.7.9
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: Counter64
Access: read-only
Description: The total number of UDP datagrams sent from this entity, for devices that can transmit more than 1 million UDP datagrams per second.
Discontinuities in the value of this counter can occur at re-initialization of the management system, and at other times as indicated by discontinuities in the value of sysUpTime.
What is udpHCOutDatagrams?
This object is the outbound counterpart to the inbound datagram counter, a 64-bit total of UDP datagrams sent by this device, intended for high-throughput systems where the older 32-bit UDP counters would wrap too quickly. An admin compares it against the inbound counter to understand traffic symmetry, and watches for a sudden drop or discontinuity, which per the description can coincide with an agent or sysUpTime restart. For example, a DNS server handling heavy UDP query traffic might show this counter climbing by tens of millions per hour.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.7.9 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> UDP-MIB::udpHCOutDatagrams
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.7.9.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> UDP-MIB::udpHCOutDatagrams.1
Start monitoring vendor-neutral, standards-based MIB, any host/server/network device running a UDP/IP stack (datagram counter/listener-endpoint status) with a free 30-day trial of IPNetwork Monitor. Create custom SNMP monitor using the UDP-MIB::udpHCOutDatagrams OID value, configure state conditions and alerts, and monitor any vendor-neutral, standards-based MIB, any host/server/network device running a UDP/IP stack (datagram counter/listener-endpoint status) from a single console.
