Description: The number of times the associated dot1qTpVlanPortInDiscards counter has overflowed.

What is dot1qTpVlanPortInOverflowDiscards?

This counter measures how many times the inbound discard counter has maxed out and reset to zero. Network engineers use this to understand the full scope of dropped frames on a VLAN port when discards are frequent. For instance, multiple overflows indicate sustained filtering issues worth investigating.

Examples

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.17.7.1.4.6.1.6
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> Q-BRIDGE-MIB::dot1qTpVlanPortInOverflowDiscards

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.17.7.1.4.6.1.6.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> Q-BRIDGE-MIB::dot1qTpVlanPortInOverflowDiscards.1
