tokenRingMLStatsDropEvents

Module: TOKEN-RING-RMON-MIB

OID (symbolic): TOKEN-RING-RMON-MIB::tokenRingMLStatsDropEvents

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.16.1.2.1.3

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Counter

Access: read-only

Description: The total number of events in which packets were dropped by the probe due to lack of resources. Note that this number is not necessarily the number of packets dropped; it is just the number of times this condition has been detected. This value is the same as the corresponding tokenRingPStatsDropEvents.

What is tokenRingMLStatsDropEvents?

Counts how many times the probe had to drop MAC-layer packets because it ran out of internal resources (CPU or buffer capacity), not how many packets were dropped -- a nonzero and climbing value tells an admin the monitoring probe itself is overloaded and some MAC-layer events may be under-reported.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.16.1.2.1.3
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> TOKEN-RING-RMON-MIB::tokenRingMLStatsDropEvents

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.16.1.2.1.3.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> TOKEN-RING-RMON-MIB::tokenRingMLStatsDropEvents.1
