alMatrixTopNOctetRate
Module: RMON2-MIB
OID (symbolic): RMON2-MIB::alMatrixTopNOctetRate
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.16.17.4.1.8
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: Gauge32
Access: read-only
Description:
The number of octets seen of this protocol from the source host to the destination host during this sampling interval, counted using the rules for counting the alMatrixSDOctets object.
If the value of alMatrixTopNControlRateBase is alMatrixTopNTerminalsOctets or alMatrixTopNAllOctets, this variable will be used to sort this report.
What is alMatrixTopNOctetRate?
This gauge measures the total number of bytes (octets) sent from source to destination during the sampling interval, showing data volume rather than just packet count. Network engineers use this to identify which flows consume the most bandwidth capacity and prioritize troubleshooting accordingly. A value of 50,000,000 octets/second from a backup server to storage confirms a high-volume data transfer worthy of bandwidth provisioning attention.
