Question


What are the SNMP OIDs for individual card CPUs on chassis based systems?

Environment


  • PA-5450
  • PA-7050
  • PA-7080
  • Supported PAN-OS
  • SNMP


    Answer


    OID for full table of CPU values:
    .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.3.3.1.2

    OID for individual card CPU - where x is the card OID index:
    .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.3.3.1.2.x

    Note**: Individual core SNMP polling is a tracked over feature request NSFR-I-23885


    Example outputs:

    PA-5450PA-7050
    root@lab:~$ snmpwalk lab-5450 -On -v2c -c public .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.3.3.1.2
    .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.3.3.1.2.1 = INTEGER: 1
    .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.3.3.1.2.4 = INTEGER: 0
    .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.3.3.1.2.5 = INTEGER: 0
    
    root@lab:~$  snmpwalk lab-7050 -On -v2c -c public .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.3.3.1.2
    .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.3.3.1.2.1 = INTEGER: 1
    .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.3.3.1.2.2 = INTEGER: 0
    .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.3.3.1.2.3 = INTEGER: 0
    .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.3.3.1.2.4 = INTEGER: 0
    .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.3.3.1.2.5 = INTEGER: 0
    .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.3.3.1.2.6 = INTEGER: 0
    .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.3.3.1.2.7 = INTEGER: 0
    .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.3.3.1.2.8 = INTEGER: 1


    Chassis Slots do not map to OID indices 1 to 1. To discover which OID index corresponds to which CPU, use the table at OID:
    .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.3.2.1.3

    Example outputs:

    PA-5450PA-7050
    root@lab:~$ snmpwalk lab-5450 -On -v2c -c public .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.3.2.1.3
    .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.3.2.1.3.1 = STRING: Slot-7 Management Processor
    .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.3.2.1.3.4 = STRING: Slot-3 Data Processor
    .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.3.2.1.3.5 = STRING: Slot-4 Data Processor
    
    
    root@lab:~$  snmpwalk lab-7050 -On -v2c -c public .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.3.2.1.3
    .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.3.2.1.3.1 = STRING: Slot-4 Management Processor
    .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.3.2.1.3.2 = STRING: Slot-1 Data Processor
    .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.3.2.1.3.3 = STRING: Slot-2 Data Processor
    .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.3.2.1.3.4 = STRING: Slot-3 Data Processor
    .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.3.2.1.3.5 = STRING: Slot-5 Data Processor
    .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.3.2.1.3.6 = STRING: Slot-6 Data Processor
    .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.3.2.1.3.7 = STRING: Slot-7 Data Processor
    .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.3.2.1.3.8 = STRING: Slot-8 Log Processor
    


    Additional Information


    • Values are % CPU use average over 60s.
    • Cards with multiple CPUs return an average of all CPUs on the card.
    • PA-5450 Network Cards (NC), eg. PA-5400-NC-A, do not return any value as they do not have a data plane processor.
    • Enterprise SNMP MIB Files
