TCP-MIB
AI MIB Summary
The TCP-MIB module enables the monitoring of Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) implementation statistics, including active connection states, retransmission counts, and segment error rates, across networked hosts and routers. It provides standardized access to TCP control variables and performance metrics defined in RFC 4022 for troubleshooting connectivity issues and analyzing transport-layer throughput.

tcp OBJECT IDENTIFIER .1.3.6.1.2.1.6 |
tcpRtoAlgorithmThe algorithm used to determine the timeout value used for retransmitting unacknowledged octets.ro Enumeration .1.3.6.1.2.1.6.1 |
tcpRtoMinThe minimum value permitted by a TCP implementation for the retransmission timeout, measured in milliseconds. More refined semantics for objects of this type depend on the algorithm used to determine the retransmission timeout; in particular, the IETF standard algorithm rfc2988(5) provides a minimum value.ro Integer32 .1.3.6.1.2.1.6.2 |
tcpRtoMaxThe maximum value permitted by a TCP implementation for the retransmission timeout, measured in milliseconds. More refined semantics for objects of this type depend on the algorithm used to determine the retransmission timeout; in particular, the IETF standard algorithm rfc2988(5) provides an upper bound (as part of an adaptive backoff algorithm).ro Integer32 .1.3.6.1.2.1.6.3 |
tcpMaxConnThe limit on the total number of TCP connections the entity can support. In entities where the maximum number of connections is dynamic, this object should contain the value -1.ro Integer32 (-1 | 0..2147483647) .1.3.6.1.2.1.6.4 |
tcpActiveOpensThe number of times that TCP connections have made a direct transition to the SYN-SENT state from the CLOSED state. Discontinuities in the value of this counter are indicated via discontinuities in the value of sysUpTime.ro Counter32 .1.3.6.1.2.1.6.5 |
tcpPassiveOpensThe number of times TCP connections have made a direct transition to the SYN-RCVD state from the LISTEN state. Discontinuities in the value of this counter are indicated via discontinuities in the value of sysUpTime.ro Counter32 .1.3.6.1.2.1.6.6 |
tcpAttemptFailsThe number of times that TCP connections have made a direct transition to the CLOSED state from either the SYN-SENT state or the SYN-RCVD state, plus the number of times that TCP connections have made a direct transition to the LISTEN state from the SYN-RCVD state. Discontinuities in the value of this counter are indicated via discontinuities in the value of sysUpTime.ro Counter32 .1.3.6.1.2.1.6.7 |
tcpEstabResetsThe number of times that TCP connections have made a direct transition to the CLOSED state from either the ESTABLISHED state or the CLOSE-WAIT state. Discontinuities in the value of this counter are indicated via discontinuities in the value of sysUpTime.ro Counter32 .1.3.6.1.2.1.6.8 |
tcpCurrEstabThe number of TCP connections for which the current state is either ESTABLISHED or CLOSE-WAIT.ro Gauge32 .1.3.6.1.2.1.6.9 |
tcpInSegsThe total number of segments received, including those received in error. This count includes segments received on currently established connections. Discontinuities in the value of this counter are indicated via discontinuities in the value of sysUpTime.ro Counter32 .1.3.6.1.2.1.6.10 |
tcpOutSegsThe total number of segments sent, including those on current connections but excluding those containing only retransmitted octets. Discontinuities in the value of this counter are indicated via discontinuities in the value of sysUpTime.ro Counter32 .1.3.6.1.2.1.6.11 |
tcpRetransSegsThe total number of segments retransmitted; that is, the number of TCP segments transmitted containing one or more previously transmitted octets. Discontinuities in the value of this counter are indicated via discontinuities in the value of sysUpTime.ro Counter32 .1.3.6.1.2.1.6.12 |
tcpConnTableA table containing information about existing IPv4-specific TCP connections or listeners. This table has been deprecated in favor of the version neutral tcpConnectionTable.deprecated SEQUENCE OF TcpConnEntry .1.3.6.1.2.1.6.13 |
tcpConnEntryA conceptual row of the tcpConnTable containing information about a particular current IPv4 TCP connection. Each row of this table is transient in that it ceases to exist when (or soon after) the connection makes the transition to the CLOSED state.deprecated TcpConnEntry .1.3.6.1.2.1.6.13.1 |
tcpConnStateThe state of this TCP connection. The only value that may be set by a management station is deleteTCB(12). Accordingly, it is appropriate for an agent to return a `badValue' response if a management station attempts to set this object to any other value. If a management station sets this object to the value deleteTCB(12), then the TCB (as defined in [RFC793]) of the corresponding connection on the managed node is deleted, resulting in immediate termination of the connection. As an implementation-specific option, a RST segment may be sent from the managed node to the other TCP endpoint (note, however, that RST segments are not sent reliably).rwdeprecated Enumeration .1.3.6.1.2.1.6.13.1.1 |
tcpConnLocalAddressThe local IP address for this TCP connection. In the case of a connection in the listen state willing to accept connections for any IP interface associated with the node, the value 0.0.0.0 is used.rodeprecated IpAddress .1.3.6.1.2.1.6.13.1.2 |
tcpConnLocalPortThe local port number for this TCP connection.rodeprecated Integer32 .1.3.6.1.2.1.6.13.1.3 |

tcpInErrsThe total number of segments received in error (e.g., bad TCP checksums). Discontinuities in the value of this counter are indicated via discontinuities in the value of sysUpTime.ro Counter32 .1.3.6.1.2.1.6.14 |
tcpOutRstsThe number of TCP segments sent containing the RST flag. Discontinuities in the value of this counter are indicated via discontinuities in the value of sysUpTime.ro Counter32 .1.3.6.1.2.1.6.15 |
tcpHCInSegsThe total number of segments received, including those received in error. This count includes segments received on currently established connections. This object is the 64-bit equivalent of tcpInSegs. Discontinuities in the value of this counter are indicated via discontinuities in the value of sysUpTime.ro Counter64 .1.3.6.1.2.1.6.17 |
tcpHCOutSegsThe total number of segments sent, including those on current connections but excluding those containing only retransmitted octets. This object is the 64-bit equivalent of tcpOutSegs. Discontinuities in the value of this counter are indicated via discontinuities in the value of sysUpTime.ro Counter64 .1.3.6.1.2.1.6.18 |
tcpConnectionTableA table containing information about existing TCP connections. Note that unlike earlier TCP MIBs, there is a separate table for connections in the LISTEN state. SEQUENCE OF TcpConnectionEntry .1.3.6.1.2.1.6.19 |
tcpConnectionEntryA conceptual row of the tcpConnectionTable containing information about a particular current TCP connection. Each row of this table is transient in that it ceases to exist when (or soon after) the connection makes the transition to the CLOSED state. TcpConnectionEntry .1.3.6.1.2.1.6.19.1 |
tcpConnectionLocalAddressTypeThe address type of tcpConnectionLocalAddress. InetAddressType (INET-ADDRESS-MIB) .1.3.6.1.2.1.6.19.1.1 |
tcpConnectionLocalAddressThe local IP address for this TCP connection. The type of this address is determined by the value of tcpConnectionLocalAddressType. As this object is used in the index for the tcpConnectionTable, implementors should be careful not to create entries that would result in OIDs with more than 128 subidentifiers; otherwise the information cannot be accessed by using SNMPv1, SNMPv2c, or SNMPv3. InetAddress (INET-ADDRESS-MIB) .1.3.6.1.2.1.6.19.1.2 |
tcpConnectionLocalPortThe local port number for this TCP connection. InetPortNumber (INET-ADDRESS-MIB) .1.3.6.1.2.1.6.19.1.3 |
tcpConnectionRemAddressTypeThe address type of tcpConnectionRemAddress. InetAddressType (INET-ADDRESS-MIB) .1.3.6.1.2.1.6.19.1.4 |
tcpConnectionRemAddressThe remote IP address for this TCP connection. The type of this address is determined by the value of tcpConnectionRemAddressType. As this object is used in the index for the tcpConnectionTable, implementors should be careful not to create entries that would result in OIDs with more than 128 subidentifiers; otherwise the information cannot be accessed by using SNMPv1, SNMPv2c, or SNMPv3. InetAddress (INET-ADDRESS-MIB) .1.3.6.1.2.1.6.19.1.5 |
tcpConnectionRemPortThe remote port number for this TCP connection. InetPortNumber (INET-ADDRESS-MIB) .1.3.6.1.2.1.6.19.1.6 |
tcpConnectionStateThe state of this TCP connection. The value listen(2) is included only for parallelism to the old tcpConnTable and should not be used. A connection in LISTEN state should be present in the tcpListenerTable. The only value that may be set by a management station is deleteTCB(12). Accordingly, it is appropriate for an agent to return a `badValue' response if a management station attempts to set this object to any other value. If a management station sets this object to the value deleteTCB(12), then the TCB (as defined in [RFC793]) of the corresponding connection on the managed node is deleted, resulting in immediate termination of the connection. As an implementation-specific option, a RST segment may be sent from the managed node to the other TCP endpoint (note, however, that RST segments are not sent reliably).rw Enumeration .1.3.6.1.2.1.6.19.1.7 |
tcpConnectionProcessThe system's process ID for the process associated with this connection, or zero if there is no such process. This value is expected to be the same as HOST-RESOURCES-MIB:: hrSWRunIndex or SYSAPPL-MIB::sysApplElmtRunIndex for some row in the appropriate tables.ro Unsigned32 .1.3.6.1.2.1.6.19.1.8 |
tcpListenerTableA table containing information about TCP listeners. A listening application can be represented in three possible ways: 1. An application that is willing to accept both IPv4 and IPv6 datagrams is represented by a tcpListenerLocalAddressType of unknown (0) and a tcpListenerLocalAddress of ''h (a zero-length octet-string). 2. An application that is willing to accept only IPv4 or IPv6 datagrams is represented by a tcpListenerLocalAddressType of the appropriate address type and a tcpListenerLocalAddress of '0.0.0.0' or '::' respectively. 3. An application that is listening for data destined only to a specific IP address, but from any remote system, is represented by a tcpListenerLocalAddressType of an appropriate address type, with tcpListenerLocalAddress as the specific local address. NOTE: The address type in this table represents the address type used for the communication, irrespective of the higher-layer abstraction. For example, an application using IPv6 'sockets' to communicate via IPv4 between ::ffff:10.0.0.1 and ::ffff:10.0.0.2 would use InetAddressType ipv4(1)). SEQUENCE OF TcpListenerEntry .1.3.6.1.2.1.6.20 |
tcpListenerEntryA conceptual row of the tcpListenerTable containing information about a particular TCP listener. TcpListenerEntry .1.3.6.1.2.1.6.20.1 |
tcpListenerLocalAddressTypeThe address type of tcpListenerLocalAddress. The value should be unknown (0) if connection initiations to all local IP addresses are accepted. InetAddressType (INET-ADDRESS-MIB) .1.3.6.1.2.1.6.20.1.1 |
tcpListenerLocalAddressThe local IP address for this TCP connection. The value of this object can be represented in three possible ways, depending on the characteristics of the listening application: 1. For an application willing to accept both IPv4 and IPv6 datagrams, the value of this object must be ''h (a zero-length octet-string), with the value of the corresponding tcpListenerLocalAddressType object being unknown (0). 2. For an application willing to accept only IPv4 or IPv6 datagrams, the value of this object must be '0.0.0.0' or '::' respectively, with tcpListenerLocalAddressType representing the appropriate address type. 3. For an application which is listening for data destined only to a specific IP address, the value of this object is the specific local address, with tcpListenerLocalAddressType representing the appropriate address type. As this object is used in the index for the tcpListenerTable, implementors should be careful not to create entries that would result in OIDs with more than 128 subidentifiers; otherwise the information cannot be accessed, using SNMPv1, SNMPv2c, or SNMPv3.
