sifRxPackets

Module: CTATX-MIB

OID (symbolic): CTATX-MIB::sifRxPackets

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.97.3.7.2.1.23

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: OCTET STRING

Access: read-only

Description: A 100 byte array, containing the number of received packets broken down into 25 categories. The number of packets in each category is encoded as a series of 4 bytes, which should be converted into a 32 bit counter. The 25 categories are determined by combining each possible DEST_xxx value with each possible OUTCOME_xxx value, as listed below: DEST_UBRIDGE = 0, DEST_MBRIDGE = 1, DEST_KNOWN = 2, DEST_UNKNOWN = 3, DEST_MULTI = 4, OUTCOME_FWD = 0, OUTCOME_LOCAL = 5, OUTCOME_BLOCK = 10, OUTCOME_SOURCE = 15, OUTCOME_DEST = 20

What is sifRxPackets?

This read-only OCTET STRING is a 100-byte array of received-packet counts on this port, broken into 25 categories formed by combining 5 destination classifications (unicast-bridge, multicast-bridge, known, unknown, multicast) with 5 outcome classifications. An administrator decodes it to get a detailed breakdown of exactly how received traffic on this port was classified and disposed of, beyond simple totals. For example, the admin decodes sifRxPackets to isolate the multicast-destination, forwarded-outcome category and confirm how much multicast traffic on this port is actually being forwarded versus filtered.
