alHostOutPkts
Module: RMON2-MIB
OID (symbolic): RMON2-MIB::alHostOutPkts
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.16.16.1.1.3
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: ZeroBasedCounter32
Access: read-only
Description: The number of packets of this protocol type without errors transmitted by this address since it was added to the alHostTable. Note that this is the number of link-layer packets, so if a single network-layer packet is fragmented into several link-layer frames, this counter is incremented several times.
What is alHostOutPkts?
This object holds a running count of packets sent out from a host address without transmission errors. Network engineers track this to diagnose whether a host is successfully transmitting traffic and to measure overall output activity. If a host shows high outPkts but low throughput, it may indicate small packet sizes or network inefficiency.
Examples
