ipIfStatsHCOutRequests

Module: IP-MIB

OID (symbolic): IP-MIB::ipIfStatsHCOutRequests

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.4.31.3.1.21

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Counter64

Access: read-only

Description: The total number of IP datagrams that local IP user- protocols (including ICMP) supplied to IP in requests for transmission. This object counts the same packets as

ipIfStatsOutRequests, but allows for larger values.

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 ipIfStatsDiscontinuityTime.

What is ipIfStatsHCOutRequests?

This OID counts all outgoing IP packets generated by the local system, using a large counter to handle very high traffic volumes. It matches ipIfStatsOutRequests but doesn't overflow on busy links. An analyst uses this to measure total outbound IP traffic from the system for capacity planning and anomaly detection.
