Description: The number of transmitted ISSU's protocol EOBC packets.

What is cvsVSLTxProtoEobcPkts?

This counts protocol-control packets, such as for ISSU, transmitted specifically over the EOBC out-of-band path. An admin cares because this shows the out-of-band channel is also carrying software-upgrade coordination traffic, providing a fallback path for that signaling. For example, during an ISSU operation, this counter incrementing alongside the main VSL protocol counter shows the coordination traffic is redundantly present on both paths.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.388.1.3.2.1.23
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> CISCO-VIRTUAL-SWITCH-MIB::cvsVSLTxProtoEobcPkts

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.388.1.3.2.1.23.1
