sEtherStatsDropEvents
Module: GBNDeviceSWAPI-MIB
OID (symbolic): GBNDeviceSWAPI-MIB::sEtherStatsDropEvents
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.13464.1.2.2.2.5.1.1.1.3
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: Counter32
Access: read-only
Description: The total number of events in which packets were dropped by the probe due to lack of resources. Note that this number is not necessarily the number of packets dropped; it is just the number of times this condition has been detected.
What is sEtherStatsDropEvents?
Counts how many times the probe dropped packets due to internal resource shortage - the number of drop events, not the number of packets dropped. A nonzero and rising value points to the switch's monitoring engine being overwhelmed rather than to a wire-level problem.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.13464.1.2.2.2.5.1.1.1.3 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> GBNDeviceSWAPI-MIB::sEtherStatsDropEvents
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.13464.1.2.2.2.5.1.1.1.3.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> GBNDeviceSWAPI-MIB::sEtherStatsDropEvents.1
