Is there discarded packets counter ?

Post by cmarmonier »

Hello,

I would like to know if there are counters to see if there is an ethernet link saturation.

Do they exist ?

There are a lot of "show interfaces" commands

Code: Select all

Core> show interfaces ?
                           ^
                           <cr> ACCOUNTING ALIAS BEACON CAPABILITY COUNTERS
                           DDM FLOOD-RATE INGRESS-RATE-LIMIT SPLIT-MODE STATUS
                           TDR-STATISTICS TRAFFIC SLOT PORT EMP
But if you would like to see how often one port was 100% of capacity you can check the traps in omnivista (port above threshold...).

regards

with the command line "show interfaces counter", I don't see byte number about Tx saturation (or Rx saturation if I enable ingress rate limiting).
Where can I find this informations ?

you can activate statistic with the following command:
qos qsi port 1/1/1 stats admin-state enable
than you can see the bytes/packets per queue - and also the droped packets.
show qos qsi port 1/1 stats
show qos qsi port 1/1 stats bytes
show qos qsi port 1/1 stats rate
show qos qsi port 1/1 stats rate bytes

On "old" Switches (6850) there was a mentioning when you issue show interfaces X/Y counters:
-> show interfaces 1/13 counters
InOctets = 54367578586897979, OutOctets = 5.78E19,
InUcastPkts = 55654265276, OutUcastPkts = 5.78E20,
InMcastPkts = 58767867868768777, OutMcastPkts = 5465758756856,
InBcastPkts = 576567567567567576, OutBcastPkts = 786876,
InPauseFrames = 567798768768767, OutPauseFrames= 786876,
Sampling Interval 5 second
InPkts / s = 11, OutPkts / s = 11,
Inbits / s = 111111, Outbits / s = 111111,


At least you had 5 seconds utiliazations.. unfortunatley i have not seen this in AOS 7/8

I thank you Silvio, It was that I searched.
Do you Know what is SNMP OID name for the tx drop counter ?
I saw in SNMP there is ifInDiscards OID but I think it isn't the tx drop counter....
And what is command line to see the ifInDiscards counter ?

Hi!,

below the OIDs for the interface statistics, depending if you use 32bits or 64bits counters:
