What is a3ComSysBridgePortForwardedFrames?

This counter tracks the total number of frames the port forwarded to other ports, regardless of addressing type. Engineers use it as a primary port utilization metric to understand overall traffic volume. A count of 10 million frames indicates continuous moderate activity.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.29.4.10.3.1.28
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> A3COM-SWITCHING-SYSTEMS-BRIDGE-MIB::a3ComSysBridgePortForwardedFrames

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.29.4.10.3.1.28.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> A3COM-SWITCHING-SYSTEMS-BRIDGE-MIB::a3ComSysBridgePortForwardedFrames.1

SNMPv3 example:

snmpget -v3 -l authPriv -u snmpv3-user -a SHA -A "AuthPassword1" -x AES -X "PrivPassword1" <target> a3ComSysBridgePortForwardedFrames.1
