ASA5585 SNMPwalk for NAT Translation Count Accuracy

Zoey Fahner

Hello everyone. Currently we are trying to monitor the capacity of our NAT pools for our customers. We currently have around 450 NAT pools on the firewall.

I have noticed two OIDs that appear to be of use in monitoring this from "show snmp-server oidlist":

[231]    1.3.6.1.2.1.123.1.4.1.12.    natAddrMapGlobalAddrTo

[235]    1.3.6.1.2.1.123.1.4.1.19.    natAddrMapAddrUsed

Although we use Dynamic NAT we only NAT to one external IP per pool and not ranges of publics.

When I walk these I can clearly see my Global Addresses listed in Hex per value and a gauge value to match. There are several hundred of these:

iso.3.6.1.2.1.123.1.4.1.11.14.54 = Hex-STRING: C0 A8 01 01

iso.3.6.1.2.1.123.1.4.1.19.14.54 = Gauge32: 52

Note that the last value in the OID appears to change per pool (ranges from 1 - 400 usually).

The issue I am having is that if I do a "show xlate global 192.168.1.1" on the firewall I see a different amount of xlates displayed, sometimes several thousand off the result from the SNMPwalk.

Am I correlating the gauge value to the nat Xlate properly?

Thank you for your help.

I have tried the OID 1.3.6.1.2.1.123.1.4.1.19 for getting the number of xlates used, and it doesn't work.
