| Description | This object is the number of octets contained in
valid frames that have been received on this port.
This counter is incremented by OctetCount for each
frame received on this port which has been
determined to be a readable frame (i.e., including
FCS octets but excluding framing bits and dribble
bits).
A discontinuity may occur in the value
when the value of object
rptrMonitorPortLastChange changes.
This statistic provides an indicator of the total
data transferred. The approximate minimum time
for rollover of this counter in a 10Mb/s repeater
is 58 minutes.
For ports receiving traffic at a maximum rate in
a 100Mb/s repeater, this counter can roll over
in less than 6 minutes. Since that amount of time
could be less than a management station's poll cycle
time, in order to avoid a loss of information a
management station is advised to also poll the
rptrMonitorPortUpper32Octets object, or to use the
64-bit counter defined by
rptrMonitorPortHCReadableOctets instead of the
two 32-bit counters. |
