alHostOutOctets
Module: RMON2-MIB
OID (symbolic): RMON2-MIB::alHostOutOctets
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.16.16.1.1.5
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: ZeroBasedCounter32
Access: read-only
Description:
The number of octets transmitted by this address of this protocol type since it was added to the alHostTable (excluding framing bits but including FCS octets), excluding those octets in packets that contained errors.
Note this doesn't count just those octets in the particular protocol frames, but includes the entire packet that contained the protocol.
What is alHostOutOctets?
This object holds a byte count of all traffic data transmitted from a host address, excluding corrupted packets. Engineers compare this against inOctets to understand traffic direction imbalance and verify hosts are behaving within expected bandwidth profiles. High outOctets with low inOctets suggests a host may be sending unusual amounts of outbound data.
