Hi,
a want to measure the unicast or multicast traffic (in bps) on a vlan interface on 65xx switch. Is that possible with SNMP?
I tried v2 IF-MIB, and IFxMIB counters, but for vlan interfaces these are not responded, and these are in pkts/sec :(
The 'show interface vlanxxx' commands output is more informative,
Vlanxxx is up, line protocol is up
Hardware is EtherSVI, address is 000f.8fe1.3400 (bia 000f.8fe1.3400)
Description: xxxxxx
Internet address is 10.14.0.1/16
MTU 1500 bytes, BW 1000000 Kbit, DLY 10 usec,
reliability 255/255, txload 1/255, rxload 1/255
Encapsulation ARPA, loopback not set
ARP type: ARPA, ARP Timeout 04:00:00
Last input 00:00:01, output 00:00:00, output hang never
Last clearing of "show interface" counters 6d18h
Input queue: 0/75/38/38 (size/max/drops/flushes); Total output drops: 0
Queueing strategy: fifo
Output queue: 0/40 (size/max)
30 second input rate 3000 bits/sec, 2 packets/sec
30 second output rate 136000 bits/sec, 10 packets/sec

The values are available via SNMP? At which OIDs?
Thanx!

I would suggest activating netflow on the desired interfaces. This will provide granularity that is not available from the interface counters. Keep in Netflow will present load to the device. You can then pull the Neflow statistics via several methods.

We tried, and used Netflow for other purposes, but it's caused several stability issues. We've got more gigs traffic on these links, and if the Netflow is active the switches hangs on frequently.
