cnt2ifCompressedOctets

Module: CNT245-MIB

OID (symbolic): CNT245-MIB::cnt2ifCompressedOctets

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.333.2.4.5.3.1.3

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Counter64

Access: read-only

Description: The number of bytes that were compressed
out of the transmitted data stream.  To
calculate the compression ratio for trans-
mitted data, the following calculation
would be used:

    ifOutOctets + cnt2ifCompressedOctets
    ------------------------------------
                 ifOutOctets.

to calculate the overall compression for
this interface, the following calculation
would be used:

    ifOutOctets + cnt2ifCompressedOctets +
    cnt2ifDecompressedOctets + ifInOctets
    --------------------------------------
           ifOutOctets + ifInOctets.

What is cnt2ifCompressedOctets?

This Counter64 counts the bytes saved out of this interface's transmitted data stream by compression, a value the MIB uses together with ifOutOctets to compute the transmit-side compression ratio. An administrator uses it alongside that interface's ifOutOctets to calculate exactly how much bandwidth compression is saving on outbound traffic. For example, a large cnt2ifCompressedOctets value relative to that interface's outbound traffic indicates compression is substantially reducing the transmitted byte count.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.333.2.4.5.3.1.3
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> CNT245-MIB::cnt2ifCompressedOctets

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.333.2.4.5.3.1.3.1
