Description: This counter is associated with the number of frames received from STS-3/STM-1 by a Virtual Interface in the current 15-minute interval.

What is virtualIfCurrentRxFrames?

Counts the number of frames received from the STS-3/STM-1 line on this Virtual Concatenation Group's interface during the current 15-minute interval. It's a real-time framing/link-integrity indicator for the VCAT link -- a rising count points to a synchronization or transport problem between the VCG members before it's rolled into the 24-hour history.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.164.3.1.6.2.1.6.1.1.3
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> RAD-SONET-MIB::virtualIfCurrentRxFrames

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.164.3.1.6.2.1.6.1.1.3.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> RAD-SONET-MIB::virtualIfCurrentRxFrames.1

Start monitoring RAD Data Communications SONET/SDH transport device with a free 30-day trial of IPNetwork Monitor. Create custom SNMP monitor using the RAD-SONET-MIB::virtualIfCurrentRxFrames OID value, configure state conditions and alerts, and monitor any RAD Data Communications SONET/SDH transport device from a single console.

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Select an RAD Data Communications SONET/SDH transport device as the target host to create a monitor — the SNMP service should be up and running on it. Click New Monitor, then check SNMP Custom on the Favorites tab, click Next, and confirm the host. On the next page, click Select... to open the built-in SNMP MIB Browser and type virtualIfCurrentRxFrames into the Find box to locate it in the OID tree, selecting the specific row/instance you want to monitor since this is a table column, then select it and click OK. This counter is associated with the number of frames received from STS-3/STM-1 by a Virtual Interface in the current 15-minute interval. On the monitor's Main parameters page you can set the target's SNMP port (default 161), credentials, polling interval, and other settings — see the SNMP Monitor help for details. On the State conditions and Alerting tabs, configure when the monitor should change state and trigger an alert; since this is a Counter64-type OID, Value bounds is the most useful condition here — trigger an alert if the counter increases sharply between polls relative to its normal baseline, since an unexpected spike often reflects a real change in traffic or activity. Click Finish to create the monitor; you can adjust any parameter later.
