ipv6IfIcmpInErrors

Module: IPV6-ICMP-MIB

OID (symbolic): IPV6-ICMP-MIB::ipv6IfIcmpInErrors

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.56.1.1.1.2

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Counter32

Access: read-only

Description: The number of ICMP messages which the interface received but determined as having ICMP-specific errors (bad ICMP checksums, bad length, etc.).

This object has been obsoleted by IP-MIB::icmpStatsInErrors.

What is ipv6IfIcmpInErrors?

Counts ICMPv6 messages received on this interface that had ICMP-specific problems such as a bad checksum or bad length. It's obsolete in favor of IP-MIB::icmpStatsInErrors, but a nonzero value here still points to a malformed or corrupted ICMPv6 stream reaching the interface.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.56.1.1.1.2
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> IPV6-ICMP-MIB::ipv6IfIcmpInErrors

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.56.1.1.1.2.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> IPV6-ICMP-MIB::ipv6IfIcmpInErrors.1
