What is ibIfPortStatInactDiscards?
This counter tracks outbound packets the port discarded because the port itself was not in the active link state. A nonzero or climbing count indicates traffic is being dropped simply because the link isn't up, which points an admin toward a link-state problem rather than a fabric routing issue. An admin seeing this counter increase would check whether that port is flapping or currently down rather than looking for a congestion cause.
