Module: IPFIX-MIB
OID (symbolic): IPFIX-MIB::ipfixTransportSessionDiscardedMessages

Description: The number of received IPFIX Messages that are malformed, cannot be decoded, are received in the wrong order, or are missing according to the sequence number.
If used at the Exporter, the number of messages that could not be sent due to, for example, internal buffer overflows, network congestion, or routing issues. 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 ipfixTransportSessionDiscontinuityTime.
What is ipfixTransportSessionDiscardedMessages?
Counts IPFIX Messages that were malformed, undecodable, out of sequence, or (on the Exporter side) simply couldn't be sent due to buffer overflow or network issues; a rising count here is a strong sign of a broken or overloaded flow-export pipeline.
