What is cardControlMessagesToBus?

This counts complete control-plane messages transmitted by this card over the internal chassis cell bus, the transmit-side counterpart to cardControlMessagesFromBus. Comparing this outbound control-message counter against its inbound counterpart over time helps an admin spot a one-directional control-plane communication failure, for example this card successfully sending control messages but never seeing acknowledgment traffic reflected in the received counter, suggesting the control processor isn't responding. For example, cardControlMessagesToBus keeps incrementing normally while cardControlMessagesFromBus stalls, suggesting the card's outbound control messages aren't being answered by the chassis control processor.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.277.1.7.2.1.188
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> CASCADE-MIB::cardControlMessagesToBus

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.277.1.7.2.1.188.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> CASCADE-MIB::cardControlMessagesToBus.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.277.1.7.2.1.188.1 i <value>
