A running counter of multicast frames received on this Ethernet port. A sudden jump can indicate unexpected multicast traffic (e.g. a misconfigured application or a flood) reaching the adapter.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.188.1.4.1.14
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> IBM-OSA-MIB::ibmOsaExpEthInGroupFrames

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.188.1.4.1.14.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> IBM-OSA-MIB::ibmOsaExpEthInGroupFrames.1
