ibIfVLInOctets
Module: IB-IF-MIB
OID (symbolic): IB-IF-MIB::ibIfVLInOctets
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.3.117.2.1.2.1.5
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: Counter64
Access: read-only
Description: The number of octets in valid data packets received on this interface, including the START and END delimiters and the VCRC for this VL.
What is ibIfVLInOctets?
This counter tracks the total number of octets received on a specific virtual lane, including packet delimiters and the VCRC. An admin compares inbound versus outbound octet counters per VL to spot asymmetric traffic patterns or confirm expected receive throughput on that lane. For example, an admin diagnosing a one-way traffic bottleneck would compare this counter against ibIfVLOutOctets on the same VL to see where the imbalance lies.
