efmCuPAFInSmallFragments

Module: EFM-CU-MIB

OID (symbolic): EFM-CU-MIB::efmCuPAFInSmallFragments

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.167.1.1.3.1.5

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Counter32

Access: read-only

Description: The number of fragments smaller than minFragmentSize (64 bytes) that have been received across the gamma interface and discarded. This read-only counter is inactive when the PAF is unsupported or disabled. Upon disabling the PAF, the counter retains its previous value.

If a Clause 45 MDIO Interface to the PCS is present, then this object maps to the 10P/2B PAF small fragments register.

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

What is efmCuPAFInSmallFragments?

This read-only counter counts fragments smaller than the 64-byte minimum fragment size that arrived on the gamma interface and were discarded, incrementing only while PAF aggregation is active. Frequent small-fragment discards can indicate a misbehaving or incompatible bonding peer.
