dellNetFpEgHgMacUnderFlow

Module: DELL-NETWORKING-FPSTATS-MIB

OID (symbolic): DELL-NETWORKING-FPSTATS-MIB::dellNetFpEgHgMacUnderFlow

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.6027.3.27.1.3.1.21

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Counter64

Access: read-only

Description: Hg MacUnderflow

What is dellNetFpEgHgMacUnderFlow?

This read-only Counter64 reports the number of underflow events on the ASIC's internal higig/high-gigabit MAC (the chip-to-chip fabric interconnect used on multi-ASIC or stacked platforms), where the MAC ran out of data to send mid-frame, counted across the whole switch's forwarding ASIC, aggregated over every port (the per-interface breakdown of these same drop reasons is in the parallel dellNetFpIf... table). This is a Broadcom-style switch-ASIC hardware drop counter: an admin troubleshooting unexplained packet loss walks this whole family of counters (Ingress*, Eg*, MMU*) looking for whichever one is actually incrementing, since that pinpoints the specific stage of the forwarding pipeline (STP state, ACL policy, buffer exhaustion, CRC error, TTL, etc.) where packets are being discarded, rather than just seeing generic interface drops.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.6027.3.27.1.3.1.21
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> DELL-NETWORKING-FPSTATS-MIB::dellNetFpEgHgMacUnderFlow

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.6027.3.27.1.3.1.21.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> DELL-NETWORKING-FPSTATS-MIB::dellNetFpEgHgMacUnderFlow.1

SNMPv3 example:

snmpget -v3 -l authPriv -u snmpv3-user -a SHA -A "AuthPassword1" -x AES -X "PrivPassword1" <target> dellNetFpEgHgMacUnderFlow.1
