xylanSonetPortStatUncorrHCSCellCount

Module: XYLAN-SONET-CELL-ERR-MIB

OID (symbolic): XYLAN-SONET-CELL-ERR-MIB::xylanSonetPortStatUncorrHCSCellCount

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.800.2.23.2.1.1.5

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-only

Description: The Uncorrectable HCS Cell Receive Count on the SONET port.

What is xylanSonetPortStatUncorrHCSCellCount?

This read-only integer is the count of ATM cells received on this SONET port with an uncorrectable HCS (Header Check Sequence) error, meaning the cell header error could not be corrected and the cell was likely discarded. Admins monitor this as a more serious error indicator than the correctable count, since these cells represent actual data loss. For example, any nonzero and growing value here would prompt an admin to investigate the physical SONET link for a fault, such as a bad fiber connector or excessive attenuation.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.800.2.23.2.1.1.5
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> XYLAN-SONET-CELL-ERR-MIB::xylanSonetPortStatUncorrHCSCellCount

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.800.2.23.2.1.1.5.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> XYLAN-SONET-CELL-ERR-MIB::xylanSonetPortStatUncorrHCSCellCount.1
