Hi pilota, list,

the tcpConnTable is part of the TCP-MIB which in term is part of MIB2. Those 
are modeled as application sub models subordinate to the device models in the 
SSdb.
You did not specify what you intend by "monitor closewait connections" (e.g. 
>number of< or >is present< or ...). However, you could set up a watch per 
model_type on the TCP1_App.
The watch might look like this:

type            : bolean
expression      : tcpConnState.# == 8
evaluation      : by polling
threshold       : == TRUE

If you define to create events instead of alarms, then you'll be able to create 
and clear dedicated alarms per row (tcp connection) based on variable 
discrimination.

Be warned!

If a device holds 5000 tcp connections regardless of state, the table contains 
5000 rows (indexed by something like " 127.0.0.1.25.0.0.0.0.0" which is local 
addr.local port.remote addr.remote port). If you set up the watch for active 
polling, then the device will be queried to deliver that 5000 rows of 
information every defined poll intervall.
Even more dangerous: if you set the watch to be active by default, that all 
devices that support this MIB will be polled that way.
This will add a significant performance burden to the devices and your 
SpectroSERVERs.

Check out the Spectrum documentation for SpectroWATCH and Event Configuration.

Mit freundlichen Gruessen - Yours sincerely

Betreff: [spectrum] tcpConnState attribute not found

Hi gurus,

I'm trying to create a watch to monitorize closewait connections:

tcpConnState OBJECT-TYPE
        SYNTAX INTEGER {
          closed(1),
          listen(2),
          synSent(3),
          synReceived(4),
          established(5),
          finWait1(6),
          finWait2(7),
          closeWait(8),
          lastAck(9),
          closing(10),
          timeWait(11),
          deleteTCB(12)
        }

        ACCESS read-write
        STATUS current

        DESCRIPTION
        "The state of this TCP connection.


I can't found how to do it. Someone could help me?

Thanks in advance.
