dellNetFpIfIngIPv4L3Discards
Module: DELL-NETWORKING-FPSTATS-MIB
OID (symbolic): DELL-NETWORKING-FPSTATS-MIB::dellNetFpIfIngIPv4L3Discards
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.6027.3.27.1.13.1.4
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: Counter64
Access: read-only
Description: IPv4 L3 Discards
What is dellNetFpIfIngIPv4L3Discards?
This read-only Counter64 reports the number of IPv4 packets discarded during Layer-3 (routing) lookup/processing on ingress, counted on this specific physical interface (this row is indexed by ifIndex/port, unlike the chassis-wide dellNetFpDrops* counters which aggregate the same reasons across the whole switch). 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> 1.3.6.1.4.1.6027.3.27.1.13.1.4 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> DELL-NETWORKING-FPSTATS-MIB::dellNetFpIfIngIPv4L3Discards
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.6027.3.27.1.13.1.4.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> DELL-NETWORKING-FPSTATS-MIB::dellNetFpIfIngIPv4L3Discards.1
