dot3StatsSQETestErrors
Module: EtherLike-MIB
OID (symbolic): EtherLike-MIB::dot3StatsSQETestErrors
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.10.7.2.1.6
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: Counter32
Access: read-only
Description: A count of times that the SQE TEST ERROR is received on a particular interface. The SQE TEST ERROR is set in accordance with the rules for verification of the SQE detection mechanism in the PLS Carrier Sense Function as described in IEEE Std. 802.3, 2000 Edition, section 7.2.4.6.
This counter does not increment on interfaces operating at speeds greater than 10 Mb/s, or on interfaces operating in full-duplex mode.
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.
What is dot3StatsSQETestErrors?
This counter records how many times the SQE (Signal Quality Error) Test Error condition was detected on this interface, a legacy 10BASE-T/coax transceiver self-test signal. It's only meaningful on old half-duplex interfaces running at 10 Mb/s or slower, since the counter never increments on faster or full-duplex links, so admins can ignore it on modern switch ports. For example, a rising SQE Test Error count on a legacy 10 Mb/s half-duplex hub connection would point to a failing or misconfigured transceiver's heartbeat function.
