MIB / OID for packets per second on Cisco ASR1002-X

[Vamshidar]

Hello, 

Can you please provide me some information about the MIB or OID to get the packets per second on interfaces. 

I am using Cisco ASR1002-X device. According this "Show Interfaces" command I see packets for every 5 minute interval. 

Example : 

5 minute input rate 33243000 bits/sec, 8010 packets/sec
5 minute output rate 33955000 bits/sec, 8943 packets/sec

I am trying to get the information of only "packets/sec" on In and Out to represent in my graphs. 

I see in Juniper we have MIB to get this information. 

Is there any chance that I get he MIB or OID of  "packets/sec".

Hi,

Not sure what management software you use but applications like SolarWinds already provide that information you are looking for.

It provides:

Interface bandwidth

packets per second

packet average size

current traffic 

and more.

As stated, yes Solarwinds does capture this information, but an OID from the platform is required to actually be able to graph it.  Solarwinds includes *average* or *min/max* PPS, but nowhere is it possible to create a graph that depicts *actual* PPS.

The data is however, collected, and available for use within the alerting framework, it just can't be graphed or exported as any type of report data.  

So again, an OID is needed so you can use the UnDP functionality and pull the data into graphs for *actual* not *average or min/max*.
