dot3StatsInternalMacReceiveErrors
Module: RFC1398-MIB
OID (symbolic): RFC1398-MIB::dot3StatsInternalMacReceiveErrors
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.10.7.2.1.16
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: Counter
Access: read-only
Description: A count of frames for which reception on a particular interface fails due to an internal MAC sublayer receive error. A frame is only counted by an instance of this object if it is not counted by the corresponding instance of either the dot3StatsFrameTooLongs object, the dot3StatsAlignmentErrors object, or the dot3StatsFCSErrors object.
The precise meaning of the count represented by an instance of this object is implementation- specific. In particular, an instance of this object may represent a count of receive errors on a particular interface that are not otherwise counted.
What is dot3StatsInternalMacReceiveErrors?
This counter reports frames on this interface that failed reception due to an internal MAC sublayer receive error, counted here only if not already attributed to oversized frames, alignment errors, or FCS errors. An admin uses it as a catch-all indicator of receive-side hardware or driver problems not captured by the more specific error counters. For example, a growing count alongside otherwise normal traffic could suggest a failing NIC or driver issue on that interface.
