ipv6IfStatsInAddrErrors

Module: IPV6-MIB

OID (symbolic): IPV6-MIB::ipv6IfStatsInAddrErrors

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.55.1.6.1.5

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Counter32

Access: read-only

Description: The number of input datagrams discarded because the IPv6 address in their IPv6 header's destination field was not a valid address to be received at this entity. This count includes invalid addresses (e.g., ::0) and unsupported addresses (e.g., addresses with unallocated prefixes). For entities which are not IPv6 routers and therefore do not forward datagrams, this counter includes datagrams discarded because the destination address was not a local address.

This object is obsoleted by IP-MIB::ipIfStatsInAddrErrors.

What is ipv6IfStatsInAddrErrors?

Counted inbound datagrams discarded because the destination address in the IPv6 header wasn't valid for receipt here — including invalid addresses like ::0 and, on non-routers, any address that wasn't local to the device. Obsolete, replaced by IP-MIB::ipIfStatsInAddrErrors.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.55.1.6.1.5
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> IPV6-MIB::ipv6IfStatsInAddrErrors

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.55.1.6.1.5.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> IPV6-MIB::ipv6IfStatsInAddrErrors.1
