etherHistoryOversizePkts
Module: RMON-MIB
OID (symbolic): RMON-MIB::etherHistoryOversizePkts
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.16.2.2.1.11
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: Counter32
Access: read-only
Description: The number of packets received during this sampling interval that were longer than 1518 octets (excluding framing bits but including FCS octets) but were otherwise well formed.
What is etherHistoryOversizePkts?
This counter records the number of packets longer than 1518 octets received during an RMON sampling interval that were otherwise well-formed (excluding framing bits, including FCS). It identifies jumbo frames or oversized legitimate traffic on an Ethernet segment. Network operators use this metric to detect unusual frame size distributions that may indicate configuration errors or protocol anomalies.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.16.2.2.1.11 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> RMON-MIB::etherHistoryOversizePkts
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.16.2.2.1.11.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> RMON-MIB::etherHistoryOversizePkts.1
