txOctetsHis

Module: ETH-SWITCH-MIB

OID (symbolic): ETH-SWITCH-MIB::txOctetsHis

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.208.39.4.1.1.21

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Counter

Access: read-only

Description: High part of a 64 bit octet transmitted counter

What is txOctetsHis?

Holds the high-order 32 bits of a 64-bit total-octets-transmitted counter for this interface; pair it with txOctetsLos (the low 32 bits) to reconstruct the full 64-bit byte count, since the underlying SNMP Counter type here is only 32 bits wide. Admins combine both halves when tracking cumulative transmitted bytes on a busy port that would otherwise wrap a 32-bit counter too quickly.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.208.39.4.1.1.21
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> ETH-SWITCH-MIB::txOctetsHis

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.208.39.4.1.1.21.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> ETH-SWITCH-MIB::txOctetsHis.1

Start monitoring Ethernet switch with port/VLAN management (vendor not confirmed) with a free 30-day trial of IPNetwork Monitor. Create custom SNMP monitor using the ETH-SWITCH-MIB::txOctetsHis OID value, configure state conditions and alerts, and monitor any Ethernet switch with port/VLAN management (vendor not confirmed) from a single console.
