copsClientErrLengthMismatch
Module: COPS-CLIENT-MIB
OID (symbolic): COPS-CLIENT-MIB::copsClientErrLengthMismatch
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.89.1.2.1.1.21
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: Counter32
Access: read-only
Description: A count of the total number of COPS messages that this client has received from COPS servers marked for this Client-Type that had a COPS protocol Message Length that did not match the actual received message. This value is cumulative since agent restart and is not zeroed on new connections.
What is copsClientErrLengthMismatch?
This read-only Counter32, cumulative since agent restart, counts received messages whose declared COPS Message Length didn't match the actual received message size. This suggests message corruption or truncation, potentially from a network path issue between client and server. For example, an admin investigates a rising copsClientErrLengthMismatch as a possible sign of packet fragmentation problems between the client and its PDP.
