dot3StatsRateControlAbility

Module: EtherLike-MIB

OID (symbolic): EtherLike-MIB::dot3StatsRateControlAbility

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.10.7.2.1.20

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: TruthValue

Access: read-only

Description: 'true' for interfaces operating at speeds above 1000 Mb/s that support Rate Control through lowering the average data rate of the MAC sublayer, with frame granularity, and 'false' otherwise.

What is dot3StatsRateControlAbility?

This true/false value indicates whether the interface, when running faster than 1000 Mb/s, supports Rate Control -- the ability to throttle its average data rate at frame granularity. Admins check it before attempting to configure rate control features on a high-speed port, since setting the related rate control status object has no real effect if this capability is false. For example, a 10 Gb/s interface reporting 'true' here confirms the hardware can be told to throttle its effective throughput below line rate on a per-frame basis.
