a3ComSysEthernetPortRateFrameTransmitRate

Module: A3COM-SWITCHING-SYSTEMS-MIB

OID (symbolic): A3COM-SWITCHING-SYSTEMS-MIB::a3ComSysEthernetPortRateFrameTransmitRate

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.29.4.8.3.1.8

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-only

Description: The average number of frames transmitted per second by the ethernet port identified by this entry during the most recent sampling period.

What is a3ComSysEthernetPortRateFrameTransmitRate?

Counts the average number of frames transmitted per second, revealing outbound packet intensity independent of payload. Engineers use this to detect control-plane overhead, identify bursty applications, or spot multicast flooding. A rate of 75,000 frames/sec indicates active packet transmission.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.29.4.8.3.1.8
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> A3COM-SWITCHING-SYSTEMS-MIB::a3ComSysEthernetPortRateFrameTransmitRate

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.29.4.8.3.1.8.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> A3COM-SWITCHING-SYSTEMS-MIB::a3ComSysEthernetPortRateFrameTransmitRate.1
