eriRouterIfHCOutIPv6Pkts

Module: ERICSSON-ROUTER-IF-MIB

OID (symbolic): ERICSSON-ROUTER-IF-MIB::eriRouterIfHCOutIPv6Pkts

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.193.218.2.57.0.1.1.8

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Counter64

Access: read-only

Description: The total number of IPv6 packets that higher-level protocols requested be transmitted, and which were addressed to a multicast address at this sub-layer, including those that were discarded or not sent. For a MAC layer protocol, this includes both Group and Functional addresses.

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 in ifXTable in IF-MIB.

What is eriRouterIfHCOutIPv6Pkts?

This is a 64-bit counter of IPv6 packets that higher-level protocols requested be transmitted toward a multicast address on this interface, including any discarded or unsent ones. Admins use it to verify outbound IPv6 multicast traffic, such as neighbor discovery or routing protocol hellos, is actually being generated and sent from the interface. For instance, an admin troubleshooting a stalled IPv6 routing adjacency might check whether this counter is incrementing to confirm multicast hellos are leaving the interface.
