a3ComSysBridgePortReceiveOtherDiscards
Module: A3COM-SWITCHING-SYSTEMS-BRIDGE-MIB
OID (symbolic): A3COM-SWITCHING-SYSTEMS-BRIDGE-MIB::a3ComSysBridgePortReceiveOtherDiscards
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.29.4.10.3.1.12
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: Counter
Access: read-only
Description: The number of frames discarded by the bridge port identified by this entry because they contained either invalid (group) source addresses or source addresses belonging to this bridge (indicative of network loops).
What is a3ComSysBridgePortReceiveOtherDiscards?
This counter tallies frames dropped due to invalid source MACs or loop detection (source belongs to this bridge). Engineers monitor it to diagnose network loops and misconfigured source addresses. Rising counts indicate bridging loops or corrupted MAC tables.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.29.4.10.3.1.12 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> A3COM-SWITCHING-SYSTEMS-BRIDGE-MIB::a3ComSysBridgePortReceiveOtherDiscards
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.29.4.10.3.1.12.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> A3COM-SWITCHING-SYSTEMS-BRIDGE-MIB::a3ComSysBridgePortReceiveOtherDiscards.1
