Module: EFM-COMMON-MIB

OID (symbolic): EFM-COMMON-MIB::dot3OamVariableRequestRx

Description: A count of the number of Variable Request OAMPDUs received on this interface.

An Variable Request OAMPDU is indicated by a valid frame with (1) destination MAC address equal to that of the reserved MAC address for Slow Protocols (See 43B of [802.3ah]), (2) a lengthOrType field equal to the reserved type for Slow Protocols, (3) a Slow Protocols subtype equal to that of the subtype reserved for OAM, and (4) an OAMPDU code equals the OAM Variable Request code.

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 dot3OamVariableRequestRx?

A count of Variable Request OAM PDUs received on this interface, i.e. the peer asking this device to report one of its MIB variables.
