infInDiscards

Module: CA-SNMP-MIB8

OID (symbolic): CA-SNMP-MIB8::infInDiscards

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.7564.23.4.1.8

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Counter64

Access: read-only

Description: The number of inbound packets which were chosen to be discarded even though no errors had been detected to prevent their being deliverable to a higher-layer protocol. One possible reason for discarding such a packet could be to free up buffer space.

What is infInDiscards?

Tracks inbound packets that were deliberately discarded despite having no errors, typically due to resource constraints such as insufficient buffer space. A rising count may indicate congestion or memory pressure on the interface.
