protocolDistStatsOctets
Module: RMON2-MIB
OID (symbolic): RMON2-MIB::protocolDistStatsOctets
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.16.12.2.1.2
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: ZeroBasedCounter32
Access: read-only
Description: The number of octets in packets of this protocol type
received since it was added to the protocolDistStatsTable (excluding framing bits, but including FCS octets), except for those octets in packets that contained errors.
Note that this doesn't count just those octets in the particular protocol frames but includes the entire packet that contained the protocol.
What is protocolDistStatsOctets?
This counter measures total bytes (octets) consumed by packets of this protocol type since monitoring started. Engineers multiply this by 8 to get total bits and compare protocol bandwidth consumption at a glance. It can reset to zero if the probe restarts, helping measure protocol bandwidth during specific periods.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.16.12.2.1.2 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> RMON2-MIB::protocolDistStatsOctets
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.16.12.2.1.2.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> RMON2-MIB::protocolDistStatsOctets.1
