dsmonHostTopNCtlRateBase

Module: DSMON-MIB

OID (symbolic): DSMON-MIB::dsmonHostTopNCtlRateBase

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.16.26.1.4.3.1.3

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-create

Description: The variable(s) for each dsmonHost that the
dsmonHostTopNRate and dsmonHostTopNHCRate variables are
based upon.  Each dsmonHostTopN report generated on behalf
of this control entry will be ranked in descending order,
based on the associated dsmonHostTable counter(s),
identified by this object.

The following table identifies the dsmonHostTable counters
associated with each enumeration:

dsmonHostTopNTotalHCOctets  dsmonHostInHCOctets +
                              dsmonHostOutHCOctets

The following enumerations are only available if the agent
supports High Capacity monitoring:

dsmonHostTopNInHCPkts
dsmonHostTopNInHCOctets

dsmonHostTopNOutHCPkts
dsmonHostTopNOutHCOctets
dsmonHostTopNTotalHCPkts
dsmonHostTopNTotalHCOctets

It is an implementation-specific matter whether an agent can
detect an overflow condition resulting from the addition of
two counter delta values for the following enumerations:

dsmonHostTopNTotalPkts
dsmonHostTopNTotalOctets
dsmonHostTopNTotalHCPkts
dsmonHostTopNTotalHCOctets

In the event such an overflow condition can be detected by
the agent, the associated dsmonHostTopNRate,
dsmonHostTopNRateOvfl, and/or dsmonHostTopNHCRate objects
should be set to their maximum value.

This object MUST NOT be modified if the associated
dsmonHostTopNCtlStatus object is equal to active(1).

What is dsmonHostTopNCtlRateBase?

Selects which counter — in, out, or combined total packets/octets (32- or 64-bit) — the resulting Top-N host report should be ranked by, e.g. total octets to find the biggest bandwidth consumers on the segment regardless of direction.
