qosFIFODiscardPkt

Module: A3COM-HUAWEI-QOS-MIB

OID (symbolic): A3COM-HUAWEI-QOS-MIB::qosFIFODiscardPkt

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.45.1.1.3.3.2.1.1.5

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Counter32

Access: read-only

Description: The discarded packet number of queue.

What is qosFIFODiscardPkt?

This counter tracks the total number of packets dropped because the FIFO queue exceeded its maximum length. Network engineers analyze this metric to determine if queue depth is adequately sized. High discard counts signal that traffic is exceeding buffer capacity and QoS configuration needs tuning.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.45.1.1.3.3.2.1.1.5
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> A3COM-HUAWEI-QOS-MIB::qosFIFODiscardPkt

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.45.1.1.3.3.2.1.1.5.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> A3COM-HUAWEI-QOS-MIB::qosFIFODiscardPkt.1

Start monitoring H3C/3Com switches and routers with a free 30-day trial of IPNetwork Monitor. Create custom SNMP monitor using the A3COM-HUAWEI-QOS-MIB::qosFIFODiscardPkt OID value, configure state conditions and alerts, and monitor any H3C/3Com switches and routers from a single console.

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Select an H3C/3Com switch or router as the target host to create a monitor — the SNMP service should be up and running on it. Click New Monitor, then check SNMP Custom on the Favorites tab, click Next, and confirm the host. On the next page, click Select... to open the built-in SNMP MIB Browser and type qosFIFODiscardPkt into the Find box to locate it in the OID tree, selecting the specific row/instance you want to monitor since this is a table column, then select it and click OK. The discarded packet number of queue. On the monitor's Main parameters page you can set the target's SNMP port (default 161), credentials, polling interval, and other settings — see the SNMP Monitor help for details. On the State conditions and Alerting tabs, configure when the monitor should change state and trigger an alert; since this is a Counter32-type OID, Value bounds is the most useful condition here — trigger an alert if the counter increases between polls, since a rising count of errors, failures, or discards often points to a real underlying problem. Click Finish to create the monitor; you can adjust any parameter later.
