dot3StatsInternalMacTransmitErrors

Module: RFC1398-MIB

OID (symbolic): RFC1398-MIB::dot3StatsInternalMacTransmitErrors

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.10.7.2.1.10

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Counter

Access: read-only

Description: A count of frames for which transmission on a particular interface fails due to an internal MAC sublayer transmit error. A frame is only counted by an instance of this object if it is not counted by the corresponding instance of either the dot3StatsLateCollisions object, the dot3StatsExcessiveCollisions object, or the dot3StatsCarrierSenseErrors 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 transmission errors on a particular interface that are not otherwise counted.

What is dot3StatsInternalMacTransmitErrors?

This counter reports frames on this interface that failed transmission due to an internal MAC sublayer transmit error, counted here only if not already attributed to late collisions, excessive collisions, or carrier sense errors. An admin watches it as a catch-all indicator of transmit-side hardware or driver problems on the interface. For example, a rising count on an otherwise healthy link could point to a failing network interface card.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
