Description: High capacity counter for number of packets forwarded by the tunnel.
What is mplsTunnelPerfHCPackets?
This 64-bit counter records the total number of packets forwarded through an MPLS traffic engineering tunnel, preventing wraparound on high-speed links. It measures throughput and confirms traffic is actually using the reserved tunnel path rather than default routing. A network engineer validates that a new MPLS tunnel is carrying expected traffic by checking this counter increases steadily.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.3.95.2.9.1.2 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> MPLS-TE-MIB::mplsTunnelPerfHCPackets
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.3.95.2.9.1.2.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> MPLS-TE-MIB::mplsTunnelPerfHCPackets.1
