What is rxShortErrors?

Counts received fragments smaller than the minimum size of an ordinary collision fragment, i.e., abnormally short garbage fragments below even collision-runt size. A climbing count suggests a noisy segment or a faulty transceiver generating sub-minimum-size junk.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.208.39.4.2.1.14
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> ETH-SWITCH-MIB::rxShortErrors

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.208.39.4.2.1.14.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> ETH-SWITCH-MIB::rxShortErrors.1
