Definition
The time (in hundredths of a second) since the last
topology change was detected by the bridge entity.
The total number of topology changes detected by this
bridge since the management entity was last reset or
initialized.
The maximum age of Spanning Tree Protocol
information learned from the network on any port
before it is discarded, in hundredths of a second. This
is the actual value that this bridge is currently using.
The number of times this port has transitioned from
the Learning state to the Forwarding state.
The number of Config BPDUs received by this port.
The number of Topology Change Notification BPDUs
received by this port.
The number of Config BPDUs transmitted by this port.
The number of Topology Change Notification BPDUs
transmitted by this port.
The number of frames that have been received by this
port from its segment. Note that a frame received on
the interface corresponding to this port is counted by
this object if and only if it is for a protocol being
processed by the local bridging function, including
bridge management frames.
The number of frames that have been transmitted by
this port to its segment. Note that a frame transmitted
on the interface corresponding to this port is counted
by this object if and only if it is for a protocol being
processed by the local bridging function, including
bridge management frames.
The total number of Forwarding Database entries that
have been or would have been learned but have been
discarded due to a lack of space to store them in the
Forwarding Database. If this counter is increasing, it
indicates that the forwarding database is regularly
becoming full (a condition that has unpleasant
performance effects on the subnetwork). If this
counter has a significant value but is not presently
increasing, it indicates that the problem has been
occurring but is not persistent.
Percentage of CPU utilization.
