Description: A count of times that the SQE TEST ERROR message is generated by the PLS sublayer for a particular interface. The SQE TEST ERROR message is defined in section 7.2.2.2.4 of [12] and its generation is described in section 7.2.4.6 of the same document.

What is dot3StatsSQETestErrors?

Counts how many times the Signal Quality Error (SQE) TEST ERROR message has been generated by the PLS sublayer for this interface. A rising count typically indicates a transceiver or heartbeat/SQE test configuration issue on legacy Ethernet hardware, prompting an admin to check the transceiver or its SQE setting. For example, a steadily increasing count on an older 10BASE-T port suggests a faulty or mismatched transceiver that needs replacing.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.10.7.2.1.6
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> RFC1284-MIB::dot3StatsSQETestErrors

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.10.7.2.1.6.1
