Counts packets discarded on receive due to loss of encryption synchronization, buffer shortage, or packet errors. A growing value here is a strong signal that ECP has lost sync and the link needs encryption to be renegotiated.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.208.43.1.5.1.6
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> PPP-MIB::pppLinkEcpRxDiscarded

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.208.43.1.5.1.6.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> PPP-MIB::pppLinkEcpRxDiscarded.1

SNMPv3 example:

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