captureBufferPacketData

Module: RMON-MIB

OID (symbolic): RMON-MIB::captureBufferPacketData

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.16.8.2.1.4

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: OCTET STRING

Access: read-only

Description: The data inside the packet, starting at the beginning of the packet plus any offset specified in the

associated bufferControlDownloadOffset, including any link level headers. The length of the data in this object is the minimum of the length of the captured packet minus the offset, the length of the associated bufferControlCaptureSliceSize minus the offset, and the associated bufferControlDownloadSliceSize. If this minimum is less than zero, this object shall have a length of zero.

What is captureBufferPacketData?

The actual captured bytes of this packet (including link-layer headers), starting from the configured download offset and truncated to whichever is smaller of the captured slice size or the configured download slice size — this is the payload an admin retrieves to inspect the packet in a protocol analyzer.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.16.8.2.1.4
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> RMON-MIB::captureBufferPacketData

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.16.8.2.1.4.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> RMON-MIB::captureBufferPacketData.1

SNMPv3 example:

snmpget -v3 -l authPriv -u snmpv3-user -a SHA -A "AuthPassword1" -x AES -X "PrivPassword1" <target> captureBufferPacketData.1
