Description: Number of bad frames (due to parity error) transmitted.

What is etherPortStatsTxBadParityError?

This counts bad frames transmitted due to an internal parity error detected in the port's transmit hardware path. Parity errors typically point to a memory or bus integrity fault on the interface card rather than anything wrong with the cabling or the far-end device. An admin seeing this counter increase would treat it as an early hardware-health warning sign for that card.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.5812.3.3.1.20
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> PORT-MIB::etherPortStatsTxBadParityError

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.5812.3.3.1.20.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> PORT-MIB::etherPortStatsTxBadParityError.1
