Module: IF-MIB
OID (symbolic): IF-MIB::ifHCOutOctets
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1.10
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: Counter64
Access: read-only
Description: The total number of octets transmitted out of the interface, including framing characters. This object is a 64-bit version of ifOutOctets.
Discontinuities in the value of this counter can occur at re-initialization of the management system, and at other times as indicated by the value of ifCounterDiscontinuityTime.
What is ifHCOutOctets?
This object tracks the total number of bytes (octets) successfully transmitted out of a network interface as a 64-bit counter. It is used by monitoring systems to measure interface egress traffic volume and detect changes in network transmission patterns. An operator would check this counter periodically to ensure an interface is transmitting expected traffic volumes and to calculate bandwidth usage over time.
