a3ComSysBridgePortSameSegmentDiscards

Module: A3COM-SWITCHING-SYSTEMS-BRIDGE-MIB

OID (symbolic): A3COM-SWITCHING-SYSTEMS-BRIDGE-MIB::a3ComSysBridgePortSameSegmentDiscards

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.29.4.10.3.1.14

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Counter

Access: read-only

Description: The number of frames discarded by the bridge port identified by this entry because the destination address is known on the same network segment as the source address, i.e., the frame does not need to be bridged.

What is a3ComSysBridgePortSameSegmentDiscards?

This counter drops frames where source and destination are on the same network segment, avoiding unnecessary bridging. Engineers use it to monitor bridging efficiency; high values mean good local traffic containment. Low values suggest most traffic is crossing segment boundaries.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.29.4.10.3.1.14
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> A3COM-SWITCHING-SYSTEMS-BRIDGE-MIB::a3ComSysBridgePortSameSegmentDiscards

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.29.4.10.3.1.14.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> A3COM-SWITCHING-SYSTEMS-BRIDGE-MIB::a3ComSysBridgePortSameSegmentDiscards.1
