The following table describes the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) statistics: 
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 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 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.
