What is pportOutErrors?

This counts outbound frames on this physical port that caused transmit errors. Unlike pportOutDiscards, which is congestion-driven, a rising count here points to a transmission-path problem on this specific port, a failing driver, bad cable, or line card issue, rather than simple oversubscription. If pportOutErrors climbs steadily on one port while other ports on the same card stay clean, that isolates the fault to this port's transmitter rather than the card as a whole.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.277.1.4.2.1.23
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> CASCADE-MIB::pportOutErrors

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.277.1.4.2.1.23.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> CASCADE-MIB::pportOutErrors.1
