nlMatrixDSPkts

Module: RMON2-MIB

OID (symbolic): RMON2-MIB::nlMatrixDSPkts

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.16.15.3.1.4

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: ZeroBasedCounter32

Access: read-only

Description: The number of packets without errors transmitted from the source address to the destination address since this entry was added to the nlMatrixDSTable. 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 nlMatrixDSPkts?

This object holds a running count of error-free packets from a specific destination address back to a specific source address. Engineers use this to track return traffic on point-to-point connections and detect asymmetric loss. For example, high SDPkts but low DSPkts suggests problems with reverse-path delivery.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.16.15.3.1.4
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> RMON2-MIB::nlMatrixDSPkts

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.16.15.3.1.4.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> RMON2-MIB::nlMatrixDSPkts.1
