What is filterPktCnts?
This read-only Counter tallies the total number of packets discarded because of this specific filter. An admin monitors this to gauge how actively a given filter is blocking traffic, helping validate whether the filter is working as intended or is overly aggressive. A filterPktCnts value climbing rapidly right after a new filter is deployed would prompt the admin to verify the filter's match criteria aren't unintentionally catching legitimate traffic.
