Issue/Introduction

What are the most useful OIDs to pull from CAS for system monitoring?

Resolution

To monitor CAS critical resources pull the following OIDs from the appliances, example:

• snmpwalk -v 2c -c community x.x.x.x 1.3.6.1.4.1.3417.2.4.1.1.1.4

  iso.3.6.1.4.1.3417.2.4.1.1.1.4.1 = INTEGER: 30
  iso.3.6.1.4.1.3417.2.4.1.1.1.4.2 = INTEGER: 47
  iso.3.6.1.4.1.3417.2.4.1.1.1.4.3 = INTEGER: 0
  iso.3.6.1.4.1.3417.2.4.1.1.1.4.4 = INTEGER: 0
  iso.3.6.1.4.1.3417.2.4.1.1.1.4.5 = INTEGER: 0
  iso.3.6.1.4.1.3417.2.4.1.1.1.4.6 = INTEGER: 58
  iso.3.6.1.4.1.3417.2.4.1.1.1.4.7 = INTEGER: 1
  iso.3.6.1.4.1.3417.2.4.1.1.1.4.8 = INTEGER: 0

where

• snmpget -v 2c -c community x.x.x.x 1.3.6.1.4.1.3417.2.4.1.1.1.4.1 ---> CPU Utilization
  snmpget -v 2c -c community x.x.x.x 1.3.6.1.4.1.3417.2.4.1.1.1.4.2 ---> Memory Utilization
  snmpget -v 2c -c community x.x.x.x 1.3.6.1.4.1.3417.2.4.1.1.1.4.5 ---> data utilization

the number of current ICAP (Edge SWG <> CAS) connections, related integer can be fetched thanks to:

• snmpget -v 2c -c community x.x.x.x 1.3.6.1.4.1.14501.8.1.13.0

Please replace "x.x.x.x" with the CAS IP address
