Table 13-4ICMP Statistics (continued)

Field

Description

 

 

icmpOutRedirects

The number of ICMP Redirect messages sent. For a host, this object will

 

always be zero, since hosts do not send redirects.

 

 

icmpOutEchos

The number of ICMP Echo (request) messages sent.

 

 

icmpOutEchoReps

The number of ICMP Echo Reply messages sent.

 

 

icmpOutTimestamps

The number of ICMP Timestamp (request) messages sent.

 

 

icmpOutTimestampReps

The number of ICMP Timestamp Reply messages sent.

icmpOutAddrMasks

The number of ICMP Address Mask Request messages sent.

 

 

icmpOutAddrMaskReps

The number of ICMP Address Mask Reply messages sent.

TCP Statistics

The following table describes the TCP statistics fields.

Table 13-5TCP Statistics

Field

Description

 

 

tcpRtoAlgorithm

The algorithm used to determine the timeout value used for retransmitting

 

unacknowledged octets.

 

 

tcpRtoMin

The minimum value permitted by a TCP implementation for the retransmission

 

timeout, measured in milliseconds. More refined semantics for objects of this

 

type depend upon the algorithm used to determine the retransmission time-

 

out. In particular, when the timeout algorithm is rsre(3), an object of this

 

type has the semantics of the LBOUND quantity described in RFC 793.

 

 

tcpRtoMax

The maximum value permitted by a TCP implementation for the retransmission

 

timeout, measured in milliseconds. More refined semantics for objects of this

 

type depend upon the algorithm used to determine the retransmission time-

 

out. In particular, when the timeout algorithm is rsre(3), an object of this

 

type has the semantics of the UBOUND quantity described in RFC 793.

 

 

tcpMaxConn

The limit on the total number of TCP connections the entity (the switch) can sup-

 

port. In entities where the maximum number of connections is dynamic, this

 

object should contain the value -1.

 

 

tcpActiveOpens

The number of times TCP connections have made a direct transition to the SYN-

 

SENT state from the CLOSED state.

 

 

tcpPassiveOpens

The number of times TCP connections have made a direct transition to the SYN-

 

RCVD state from the LISTEN state.
