Table 74 SNMP statistics
Statistics Description
snmpInPkts The total number of messages delivered to the SNMP entity from the transport
service.
snmpInBadVersions The total number of SNMP messages, which were delivered to the SNMP protocol
entity and were for an unsupported SNMP version.
snmpInBadC'tyNames The total number of SNMP messages delivered to the SNMP entity that used an
SNMP community name not known to the GbE2 Interconnect Switch.
snmpInBadC'tyUses The total number of SNMP messages delivered to the SNMP protocol entity that
represented an SNMP operation which was not allowed by the SNMP community
named in the message.
snmpInASNParseErrs The total number of ASN.1 (Abstract Syntax Notation One) or BER (Basic Encoding
Rules), errors encountered by the SNMP protocol entity when decoding SNMP
messages received.
The Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) method of specifying abstract objects is
called ASN.1 (Abstract Syntax Notation One, defined in X.208), and one set of
rules for representing such objects as strings of ones and zeros is called the BER
(Basic Encoding Rules, defined in X.209).
ASN.1 is a flexible notation that allows one to define a variety of data types, from
simple types such as integers and bit strings to structured types such as sets and
sequences.
BER describes how to represent or encode values of each ASN.1 type as a string of
eight-bit octets.
snmpEnableAuthTraps An object to enable or disable the authentication traps generated by this GbE2
Interconnect Switch.
snmpOutPkts The total number of SNMP messages which were passed from the SNMP protocol
entity to the transport service.
snmpInBadTypes The total number of SNMP messages which failed ASN.1 parsing.
snmpInTooBigs The total number of SNMP Protocol Data Units (PDUs) that were delivered to the
SNMP protocol entity and for which the value of the error-status field is too big.
snmpInNoSuchNames The total number of SNMP Protocol Data Units (PDUs) that were delivered to the
SNMP protocol entity and for which the value of the error-status field is
noSuchName.
snmpInBadValues The total number of SNMP Protocol Data Units (PDUs) that were delivered to the
SNMP protocol entity and for which the value of the error-status field is badValue.
snmpInReadOnlys The total number of valid SNMP Protocol Data Units (PDUs), which were delivered
to the SNMP protocol entity and for which the value of the error-status field is read-
only.
It should be noted that it is a protocol error to generate an SNMP PDU, which
contains the value read-only in the error-status field. As such, this object is provided
as a means of detecting incorrect implementations of the SNMP.
snmpInGenErrs The total number of SNMP Protocol Data Units (PDUs), which were delivered to the
SNMP protocol entity and for which the value of the error-status field is genErr.
snmpInTotalReqVars The total number of MIB objects which have been retrieved successfully by the
SNMP protocol entity as a result of receiving valid SNMP Get-Request and Get-Next
Protocol Data Units (PDUs).
snmpInTotalSetVars The total number of MIB objects, which have been altered successfully by the SNMP
protocol entity as a result of receiving valid SNMP Set-Request Protocol Data Units
(PDUs).
snmpInGetRequests The total number of SNMP Get-Request Protocol Data Units (PDUs), which have
been accepted and processed by the SNMP protocol entity.
snmpInGetNexts The total number of SNMP Get-Next Protocol Data Units (PDUs), which have been
accepted and processed by the SNMP protocol entity.
