dot3OamOrgSpecificTx

Module: DOT3-OAM-MIB

OID (symbolic): DOT3-OAM-MIB::dot3OamOrgSpecificTx

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.158.1.4.1.13

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Counter32

Access: read-only

Description: A count of the number of Organization Specific OAMPDUs

transmitted on this interface.

Discontinuities of this counter can occur at re-initialization of the management system, and at other times as indicated by the value of the ifCounterDiscontinuityTime.

What is dot3OamOrgSpecificTx?

This OID counts diagnostic test packets sent across an Ethernet link to check link health. Higher counts indicate more frequent diagnostics or higher link utilization. Operators monitor this to ensure diagnostic tools are running and detecting link issues.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.158.1.4.1.13
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> DOT3-OAM-MIB::dot3OamOrgSpecificTx

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.158.1.4.1.13.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> DOT3-OAM-MIB::dot3OamOrgSpecificTx.1

SNMPv3 example:

snmpget -v3 -l authPriv -u snmpv3-user -a SHA -A "AuthPassword1" -x AES -X "PrivPassword1" <target> dot3OamOrgSpecificTx.1
