usrPPPoENumberBadPackets
Module: USR-PPPOE-MIB
OID (symbolic): USR-PPPOE-MIB::usrPPPoENumberBadPackets
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.429.4.79.13
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: Counter32
Access: read-only
Description: The number of bad PPPoE packets
What is usrPPPoENumberBadPackets?
This read-only counter reports the number of malformed or otherwise invalid PPPoE packets the device has received. An admin monitors this for signs of a misbehaving client, a faulty upstream device, or a potential PPPoE-layer attack generating malformed discovery or session packets. For example, a steadily climbing usrPPPoENumberBadPackets count from one subscriber segment points to a faulty modem or NIC on that segment sending corrupted PPPoE frames.
