IPSEC tunnel count continuously increments
![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/caeab7f2fb7693382e4c3864d13c4e10.jpg?s=120&d=mm&r=g)
I've built a DMVPN test network with one hub and one spoke and upon monitoring them, I notice the graph for IPSEC Active Tunnels (/graphs/type=device_cipsec_flow_tunnels) increments by one every hour - only on the spoke router, not on the hub.
So I'm wondering where Observium is grabbing that piece of data from? Which SNMP OID?
If I do a "show crypto eli" on the spoke, I have 2 active sessions (Observium now reports 66), and 12 on the hub (Observium reports 5).
Any ideas?
Thanks!

Upgrade your IOS. It's probably not decrementing the gauge when a tunnel goes down, or something.

State your IOS release, because there is one which does increment them all time until you reboot router ;)

Thanks guys. The spoke with weird counters is running "Cisco IOS Software, C890 Software (C890-UNIVERSALK9-M), Version 15.2(4)M2, RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc2)"
Sure enough; CISCO-IPSEC-FLOW-MONITOR-MIB::cipSecGlobalActiveTunnels.0 = Gauge32: 67
The hub is running 15.0(1)M4
I'll go bug Cisco.
Thanks again!

Which
