ciscoTsStackSwitchXmitFrames
Module: CISCO-TS-STACK-MIB
OID (symbolic): CISCO-TS-STACK-MIB::ciscoTsStackSwitchXmitFrames
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.5.32.2.1.1.18
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: Counter
Access: read-only
Description: Frames transmitted by the CPU.
What is ciscoTsStackSwitchXmitFrames?
This read-only Counter tallies the number of frames the switch's own CPU has transmitted, as opposed to frames merely switched in hardware between ports. Admins watch this alongside ciscoTsStackSwitchRcvdFrames to gauge how much traffic is being punted up to software processing, which is relevant because CPU-handled traffic is far more expensive than hardware-switched traffic on this platform. A steadily climbing value here alongside high CPU utilization would point at excessive software-forwarded traffic, such as broadcast storms or unresolved station lookups.
Examples
