ctIfInMulticastPkts
Module: CTIF-EXT-MIB
OID (symbolic): CTIF-EXT-MIB::ctIfInMulticastPkts
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.52.4.3.3.10.1.1.5
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: Counter
Access: read-only
Description: The number of packets, delivered by this sub-layer to a higher (sub-)layer, which were addressed to a multicast address at this sub-layer. For a MAC layer protocol, this includes both Group and Functional addresses.
What is ctIfInMulticastPkts?
This read-only Counter tracks packets addressed to a multicast address at this sub-layer, including Group and Functional addresses for a MAC-layer protocol. An admin monitors it to spot unusual multicast load, for instance from Token Ring functional-address traffic. For example, a spike in ctIfInMulticastPkts on a Token Ring interface alerts the admin to unusually heavy functional-address traffic, perhaps from a misbehaving application.
Examples
