Description: The number of IP broadcast datagrams received.
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 ipSystemStatsDiscontinuityTime.
What is ipSystemStatsInBcastPkts?
This counter tracks the total number of IP broadcast datagrams received on all interfaces in the system. An operator monitors this to detect broadcast storms or unusual broadcast traffic patterns that could indicate network problems. The counter can wrap, so the system reports discontinuity times when it resets.
