Description: Broadcast packets
What is ethernetBroadcastVal?
This counter accumulates the total number of broadcast Ethernet frames that the device has observed or processed on the network. Network analysts monitor this metric to understand broadcast traffic patterns and identify broadcast storms that could degrade network performance. Excessive broadcast traffic often indicates misconfigured or malfunctioning network devices.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.15397.2.1.28.2.1 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> PACKETLOGIC-MIB::ethernetBroadcastVal
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.15397.2.1.28.2.1.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> PACKETLOGIC-MIB::ethernetBroadcastVal.1
