Module: TIMETRA-IEEE8021-CFM-MIB

OID (symbolic): TIMETRA-IEEE8021-CFM-MIB::tmnxDot1agCfmGlobalPacketDiscard

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.6527.3.1.2.52.2.3.1.4

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Counter32

Access: read-only

Description: The value of tmnxDot1agCfmGlobalPacketDiscard indicates the number of packets discarded by ETH-CFM. A packet may be discarded for several reasons including, but not limited to, malformed PDU, invalid TLVs, MEP admin down, etc.

What is tmnxDot1agCfmGlobalPacketDiscard?

This counter tracks the total number of ETH-CFM packets discarded system-wide for reasons such as a malformed PDU, invalid TLVs, or the MEP being administratively down. An admin uses this, distinct from the resource-contention drop counter, to see how much CFM traffic is being rejected for protocol or configuration reasons rather than a capacity limit. A rising discard count alongside recently added or changed MEPs suggests a configuration or interoperability problem rather than a resource issue.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.6527.3.1.2.52.2.3.1.4
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> TIMETRA-IEEE8021-CFM-MIB::tmnxDot1agCfmGlobalPacketDiscard

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.6527.3.1.2.52.2.3.1.4.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> TIMETRA-IEEE8021-CFM-MIB::tmnxDot1agCfmGlobalPacketDiscard.1
