What is brcdIfEgressCounterDropPkts?
This object counts the total number of packets dropped on the egress (outbound) side of a specific queue on a switch port due to congestion or buffer exhaustion. Network operators monitor this counter to identify ports or queues experiencing excessive packet loss and to verify that Quality of Service (QoS) is working correctly. A rising counter indicates the egress queue is becoming oversubscribed.
