What is usdSmdsMajorIfStatsInKeepaliveRequests?

This read-only Counter32 tallies the number of keepalive requests the SMDS major interface has received from its peer. It's a direct indicator that keepalive exchange is active and the remote end is alive and probing this side. An admin troubleshooting a suspected dead link would watch this counter to confirm whether keepalive requests are still arriving.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.4874.2.2.50.1.7.1.1
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> Unisphere-Data-SMDS-MIB::usdSmdsMajorIfStatsInKeepaliveRequests

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.4874.2.2.50.1.7.1.1.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> Unisphere-Data-SMDS-MIB::usdSmdsMajorIfStatsInKeepaliveRequests.1

Start monitoring Juniper/Unisphere ERX edge routing switch with legacy SMDS WAN interfaces (interface provisioning/row-status status) with a free 30-day trial of IPNetwork Monitor. Create custom SNMP monitor using the Unisphere-Data-SMDS-MIB::usdSmdsMajorIfStatsInKeepaliveRequests OID value, configure state conditions and alerts, and monitor any Juniper/Unisphere ERX edge routing switch with legacy SMDS WAN interfaces (interface provisioning/row-status status) from a single console.

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Select a Juniper/Unisphere ERX edge routing switch with legacy SMDS WAN interface (interface provisioning/row-status 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 usdSmdsMajorIfStatsInKeepaliveRequests 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. The number of keepalive requests received. 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 a Counter32-type OID, Value bounds is the most useful condition here — trigger an alert if the counter increases sharply between polls relative to its normal baseline, since an unexpected spike often reflects a real change in traffic or activity. Click Finish to create the monitor; you can adjust any parameter later.
