snSwPortStatsInDiscard

Module: HP-SN-SWITCH-GROUP-MIB

OID (symbolic): HP-SN-SWITCH-GROUP-MIB::snSwPortStatsInDiscard

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.3.7.11.12.1.3.3.1.1.29

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Counter

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 snSwPortStatsInDiscard?

Counts inbound packets that were deliberately discarded even though no error was detected, for example to free up buffer space during congestion. An admin watches for a rising count here as a sign the port is regularly running into buffer congestion on receive.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.3.7.11.12.1.3.3.1.1.29
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> HP-SN-SWITCH-GROUP-MIB::snSwPortStatsInDiscard

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.3.7.11.12.1.3.3.1.1.29.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> HP-SN-SWITCH-GROUP-MIB::snSwPortStatsInDiscard.1
