Subject: TcpOutSegs in tcp_mib not RFC1213 compliant?
Date: Tue, 5 Aug 2003 20:01:22 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200308052001.22259.mlev@despammed.com> (raw)

Hi,

>From looking at net/ipv4/tcp_output.c, TcpOutSegs counts all
outgoing packets, including pure retransmits.  This seems
to contradict RFC 1213 (MIB-II):

          tcpOutSegs OBJECT-TYPE
              SYNTAX  Counter
              ACCESS  read-only
              STATUS  mandatory

              DESCRIPTION
                      "The total number of segments sent, including
                      those on current connections but excluding those
                      containing only retransmitted octets."
              ::= { tcp 11 }

Is that intentional or an oversight?

Lev
