Module: PRVT-SWITCH-MIB

OID (symbolic): PRVT-SWITCH-MIB::reportsL2IfaceStatsOctets

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.738.1.5.100.3.1.1.1.24

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Counter32

Access: read-only

Description: The total number of octets of data (including those in bad packets) received on the network (excluding framing bits but including FCS octets).

This object can be used as a reasonable estimate of Ethernet utilization. If greater precision is desired, the etherStatsPkts and etherStatsOctets objects should be sampled before and after a common interval. The differences in the sampled values are Pkts and Octets, respectively, and the number of seconds in the interval is Interval. These values are used to calculate the Utilization as follows:

Pkts * (9.6 + 6.4) + (Octets * .8) Utilization = ------------------------------------- Interval * 10,000

The result of this equation is the Ethernet segment utilization which is the percent utilization of the ethernet segment on a 0 to 100 percent scale.

What is reportsL2IfaceStatsOctets?

This is an RMON-style counter of all octets received on the segment (including bad packets, excluding framing bits but including FCS), which admins can sample before/after an interval to estimate Ethernet segment utilization.
