cwredQueueAverage

Module: CISCO-WRED-MIB

OID (symbolic): CISCO-WRED-MIB::cwredQueueAverage

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.83.1.2.1.1.1

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Gauge32

Access: read-only

Description: The computed queue average length.

What is cwredQueueAverage?

This read-only Gauge32 object reports, in packets, the WRED algorithm's smoothed average queue length, computed using the decay factor from cwredConfigGlobQueueWeight. An admin monitors this as the primary real-time indicator of sustained congestion on that queue, as opposed to instantaneous depth which can spike briefly. For example, a steadily climbing cwredQueueAverage over several polling intervals would indicate genuine sustained congestion building on that queue rather than a passing traffic burst.
