Module: PRVT-SWITCH-MIB

OID (symbolic): PRVT-SWITCH-MIB::reportsL2IfaceStatsJabbers

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.738.1.5.100.3.1.1.1.32

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Counter32

Access: read-only

Description: The total number of packets received that were longer than 1518 octets (excluding framing bits, but including FCS octets), and had either a bad Frame Check Sequence (FCS) with an integral number of octets (FCS Error) or a bad FCS with a non-integral number of octets (Alignment Error).

Note that this definition of jabber is different from the definition in IEEE-802.3 section 8.2.1.5 (10BASE5) and section 10.3.1.4 (10BASE2). These documents define jabber as the condition in which any packet exceeds 20 ms. The allowed range to detect jabber is between 20 ms and 150 ms.

What is reportsL2IfaceStatsJabbers?

This counts packets longer than 1518 octets that also had a bad FCS or alignment error, the classic signature of a jabbering (malfunctioning) NIC flooding oversized, corrupt frames onto the segment.
