alaIpMcastInterfaceHCInMcastPkts

Module: ALCATEL-IND1-IPMCAST-MIB

OID (symbolic): ALCATEL-IND1-IPMCAST-MIB::alaIpMcastInterfaceHCInMcastPkts

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.6486.801.1.2.1.10.10.2.1.1.4.1.11

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Counter64

Access: read-only

Description: The number of multicast packets that have arrived on the interface. In many cases, this object is identical to ifHCInMulticastPkts in the Interfaces MIB.

However, some implementations use ifXTable for Layer 2 traffic statistics and alaIpMcastInterfaceTable at Layer 3. In this case a difference between these objects probably indicates that some Layer 3 multicast packets are being transmitted as unicast at Layer 2.

What is alaIpMcastInterfaceHCInMcastPkts?

Tracks the total number of IP multicast packets received on this interface using a 64-bit high-capacity counter. This is the layer-3 counterpart to ifHCInMulticastPkts and is used when the interface table only counts layer-2 traffic.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.6486.801.1.2.1.10.10.2.1.1.4.1.11
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> ALCATEL-IND1-IPMCAST-MIB::alaIpMcastInterfaceHCInMcastPkts

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.6486.801.1.2.1.10.10.2.1.1.4.1.11.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> ALCATEL-IND1-IPMCAST-MIB::alaIpMcastInterfaceHCInMcastPkts.1
