dellNetFpIngHeadroomCells

Module: DELL-NETWORKING-FPSTATS-MIB

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

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.6027.3.27.1.9.1.3

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Counter32

Access: read-only

Description: Headroom cell count per priority group.

What is dellNetFpIngHeadroomCells?

This read-only value is a point-in-time snapshot of how many headroom buffer cells -- the reserved margin that absorbs in-flight traffic during the round-trip time of a Priority Flow Control pause -- are currently in use for this ingress priority group (device-wide snapshot; the per-interface duplicate is dellNetFpIfIngHeadroomCells). An admin watching this during PFC/lossless-Ethernet tuning (e.g. for iSCSI or RoCE traffic) uses it to confirm headroom is sized correctly: if it regularly approaches its configured limit, packets could be dropped despite PFC being enabled.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.6027.3.27.1.9.1.3
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> DELL-NETWORKING-FPSTATS-MIB::dellNetFpIngHeadroomCells

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.6027.3.27.1.9.1.3.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> DELL-NETWORKING-FPSTATS-MIB::dellNetFpIngHeadroomCells.1

SNMPv3 example:

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