What is ipv6IfStatsInTooBigErrors?

Counted inbound datagrams that couldn't be forwarded because they exceeded the outgoing interface's MTU. This object was obsoleted outright (not replaced) because implementations generally didn't retain the incoming interface for packets that failed fragmentation.
