What is smonVlanIdStatsNUcastPkts?
This counter measures the total number of non-unicast packets (broadcast and multicast frames) counted on a specific VLAN. It provides insight into the volume of multi-destination traffic on a VLAN, which is useful for detecting broadcast storms or unexpected multicast flooding that could impact network efficiency. Network administrators check this metric when optimizing VLAN design or troubleshooting excessive control-plane traffic.
Examples
