txPausePkts
Module: CMM3-MIB
OID (symbolic): CMM3-MIB::txPausePkts
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.161.19.3.4.2.1.1.29
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: Counter32
Access: read-only
Description: The number of PAUSE frame transmitted by a port. The MAC resolve to full duplex mode, with 803.3x flow control PAUSE frame exchange enabled at the completion of auto-negotiation.
What is txPausePkts?
This Counter32 counts 802.3x PAUSE frames the port has transmitted, which happens once the MAC has negotiated full duplex with flow control enabled. A high count means this port is regularly asking its link partner to slow down because its own output queue is filling up. An admin noticing txPausePkts rising steadily on a port might investigate whether the downstream device is a bottleneck that needs a faster uplink or QoS tuning.
