dsmonPdistTopNCtlRateBase

Module: DSMON-MIB

OID (symbolic): DSMON-MIB::dsmonPdistTopNCtlRateBase

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.16.26.1.3.3.1.3

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-create

Description: The variable for each dsmonPdist that the
dsmonPdistTopNRate and dsmonPdistTopNHCRate variables are
based upon.  Each dsmonPdistTopN report generated on behalf
of this control entry will be ranked in descending order,
based on the associated dsmonPdistStatsTable counter,
identified by this object.

The following table identifies the dsmonPdistTable counter
associated with each enumeration:

Enumeration              RateBase MIB Object
-----------              -------------------
dsmonPdistTopNPkts          dsmonPdistStatsPkts
dsmonPdistTopNOctets        dsmonPdistStatsOctets
dsmonPdistTopNHCPkts        dsmonPdistStatsHCPkts
dsmonPdistTopNHCOctets      dsmonPdistStatsHCOctets

Note that the dsmonPdistTopNHCPkts and
dsmonPdistTopNHCOctets enumerations are only available if
the agent supports High Capacity monitoring.

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

What is dsmonPdistTopNCtlRateBase?

Selects which counter — packets, octets, or their 64-bit HC equivalents — the resulting Top-N protocol report should be ranked by; an admin picks octets, for instance, to find the bandwidth-heaviest protocols rather than the most chatty ones.
