nlMatrixTopNReversePktRate
Module: RMON2-MIB
OID (symbolic): RMON2-MIB::nlMatrixTopNReversePktRate
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.16.15.5.1.6
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: Gauge32
Access: read-only
Description:
The number of packets seen from the destination host to the source host during this sampling interval, counted using the rules for counting the nlMatrixSDPkts object (note that the corresponding nlMatrixSDPkts object selected is the one whose source address is equal to nlMatrixTopNDestAddress and whose destination address is equal to nlMatrixTopNSourceAddress.)
Note that if the value of nlMatrixTopNControlRateBase is equal to nlMatrixTopNPkts, the sort of topN entries is based entirely on nlMatrixTopNPktRate, and not on the value of this object.
What is nlMatrixTopNReversePktRate?
This current-level gauge counts packets flowing in the reverse direction (destination back to source) during the same sampling period. Engineers compare this to the forward rate to detect imbalanced conversations—e.g., 100k packets forward but only 1k reverse suggests the source is sending requests the destination barely acknowledges. Example: reverse rate of zero might indicate one-way flooding or a broken connection.
