Module: FOUNDRY-SN-POS-GROUP-MIB
OID (symbolic): FOUNDRY-SN-POS-GROUP-MIB::snPOSStatsInDiscard
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.1991.1.2.14.1.1.1.23
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Access: read-only
Description: The number of inbound packets which were chosen to be discarded even though no errors had been detected to prevent their being deliverable to a higher-layer protocol. One possible reason for discarding such a packet could be to free up buffer space.
What is snPOSStatsInDiscard?
Counts inbound packets that were discarded even though no errors were detected, typically because buffer space needed to be freed. A rising count suggests the interface is being oversubscribed and may need more buffering or rate limiting upstream.
