etherStatsDropEvents
Module: RMON-MIB
OID (symbolic): RMON-MIB::etherStatsDropEvents
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.16.1.1.1.3
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: Counter32
Access: read-only
Description: The total number of events in which packets were dropped by the probe due to lack of resources. Note that this number is not necessarily the number of packets dropped; it is just the number of times this condition has been detected.
What is etherStatsDropEvents?
The number of times the RMON probe detected that it had to drop packets on this interface due to a lack of internal resources; note this counts drop events, not the number of packets actually dropped, so a high value signals the probe itself is overloaded, not necessarily the network.
Examples
