ifCounterDiscontinuityTime
Module: IF-MIB
OID (symbolic): IF-MIB::ifCounterDiscontinuityTime
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1.19
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: TimeStamp
Access: read-only
Description: The value of sysUpTime on the most recent occasion at which any one or more of this interface's counters suffered a discontinuity. The relevant counters are the specific instances associated with this interface of any Counter32 or
Counter64 object contained in the ifTable or ifXTable. If no such discontinuities have occurred since the last re- initialization of the local management subsystem, then this object contains a zero value.
What is ifCounterDiscontinuityTime?
This OID records when the device's interface counters were last reset or restarted, expressed as the system's uptime at that moment. Counters may reset during maintenance, software updates, or hardware resets. A management system checks this to know whether counter readings are still reliable or if they jumped due to a reset.
