mplsOutSegmentPerfDiscards

Module: MPLS-LSR-STD-MIB

OID (symbolic): MPLS-LSR-STD-MIB::mplsOutSegmentPerfDiscards

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.10.166.2.1.8.1.4

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Counter32

Access: read-only

Description: The number of labeled packets attempted to be transmitted on this out-segment, which were chosen to be discarded even though no errors had been detected to prevent their being transmitted. One possible reason for discarding such a labeled packet could be to free up buffer space.

What is mplsOutSegmentPerfDiscards?

Counts labeled packets that were queued for transmission on this outgoing segment but deliberately discarded despite no errors, typically to relieve buffer congestion. Rising discards here point to output queue pressure on that LSP rather than link faults.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.10.166.2.1.8.1.4
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> MPLS-LSR-STD-MIB::mplsOutSegmentPerfDiscards

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.10.166.2.1.8.1.4.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> MPLS-LSR-STD-MIB::mplsOutSegmentPerfDiscards.1
