What is bayStackStatsIfNoResourcesPktsDropped?

Counts the total number of packets dropped on an interface because the switch ran out of internal resources to process them. A rising value indicates resource exhaustion, possibly due to traffic bursts or memory pressure.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.45.5.12.1.1.1.2
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> BAY-STACK-STATS-MIB::bayStackStatsIfNoResourcesPktsDropped

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.45.5.12.1.1.1.2.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> BAY-STACK-STATS-MIB::bayStackStatsIfNoResourcesPktsDropped.1

Create custom SNMP monitor using the BAY-STACK-STATS-MIB::bayStackStatsIfNoResourcesPktsDropped OID value, configure state conditions and alerts, and monitor any Avaya/Nortel BayStack Ethernet Routing Switch (ERS) (legacy) from a single console.

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Select an Avaya/Nortel BayStack Ethernet Routing Switch (ERS) (legacy) as the target host to create a monitor — the SNMP service should be up and running on it. Click New Monitor, then check SNMP Custom on the Favorites tab, click Next, and confirm the host. On the next page, click Select... to open the built-in SNMP MIB Browser and type bayStackStatsIfNoResourcesPktsDropped into the Find box to locate it in the OID tree, selecting the specific row/instance you want to monitor since this is a table column, then select it and click OK. The number of packets dropped due to a lack of resources. On the monitor's Main parameters page you can set the target's SNMP port (default 161), credentials, polling interval, and other settings — see the SNMP Monitor help for details. On the State conditions and Alerting tabs, configure when the monitor should change state and trigger an alert; since this is a Counter64-type OID, Value bounds is the most useful condition here — trigger an alert if the counter increases between polls, since a rising count of errors, failures, or discards often points to a real underlying problem. Click Finish to create the monitor; you can adjust any parameter later.
