Description: The number of reverse tunnel remarked bytes received on this PM instance.

What is cienaCesPmBasicTxRxBiDirHistoryBinRevRxYellowBytes?

This Counter64 field tallies the bytes on the reverse direction of this bidirectional CES tunnel that were yellow on ingress, specifically traffic that arrived over the tunnel's committed rate but within its excess rate, so the policer marked it yellow (discard-eligible) instead of admitting it cleanly or dropping it outright. Because this row is a closed, already-completed measurement interval kept in the CES-PM history table — a fixed, immutable snapshot of one specific past window, a climbing count here is an early-warning sign that this direction of the tunnel is running over its committed bandwidth profile even though the traffic, for now, is still getting through, and tracking it separately per direction (forward vs. reverse) lets you tell whether a problem is one-sided rather than affecting the whole tunnel. For instance, over the most recently completed 15-minute bin this counter might climb by roughly 45 KB of reverse-direction traffic — if the matching counter for the forward direction stays far lower (or far higher) than this one, that directional imbalance is itself the diagnostic clue, since a healthy bidirectional tunnel would normally carry fairly similar yellow volume both ways.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.1271.2.3.1.2.3.12.1.1.21
