What is dlswDirNBCacheMisses?

A running counter of how many times a lookup of a NetBIOS name in the local directory cache failed to find an entry. Rising values suggest the switch is frequently having to resolve NetBIOS names it hasn't cached yet, which can add latency to name-based session setup.
