gsEBufferHighOverflowDrops

Module: GIGAswitchEthernet-MIB

OID (symbolic): GIGAswitchEthernet-MIB::gsEBufferHighOverflowDrops

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.36.2.18.39.3.7.1.1.11

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Counter

Access: read-only

Description: The count of the number of high priority frames dropped due to the high priority queue overflowing.

What is gsEBufferHighOverflowDrops?

Counts high-priority frames dropped because the high-priority queue itself overflowed. A rising count here, even with priority buffering configured, tells an admin the high-priority allocation is still undersized for the actual voice/control traffic load.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.36.2.18.39.3.7.1.1.11
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> GIGAswitchEthernet-MIB::gsEBufferHighOverflowDrops

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.36.2.18.39.3.7.1.1.11.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> GIGAswitchEthernet-MIB::gsEBufferHighOverflowDrops.1
