etherPortStatsTxFCSErrors

Module: PORT-MIB

OID (symbolic): PORT-MIB::etherPortStatsTxFCSErrors

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.5812.3.3.1.13

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Counter

Access: read-only

Description: Total packets transmitted on ethernet port with FCS errors (if MAC generates the FCS, this can never be incremented).

What is etherPortStatsTxFCSErrors?

This counts transmitted frames on the port that had Frame Check Sequence errors, though the description notes the counter can never increment if the local MAC generates the FCS itself. It exists mainly for completeness and hardware paths where the FCS is supplied externally rather than by this MAC. In normal operation with this MAC generating FCS, an admin should expect this value to stay at zero.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.5812.3.3.1.13
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> PORT-MIB::etherPortStatsTxFCSErrors

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.5812.3.3.1.13.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> PORT-MIB::etherPortStatsTxFCSErrors.1

SNMPv3 example:

snmpget -v3 -l authPriv -u snmpv3-user -a SHA -A "AuthPassword1" -x AES -X "PrivPassword1" <target> etherPortStatsTxFCSErrors.1
