Hello

When developing a new Dataminer "SNMP based" driver, what is your advice on how to deal with counter rollover?

For example: Interface BitsIn and BitOut counters.

Does Dataminer implement any "out of the box" mechanism to deal with SNMP counter rollover?

Thank you.

Best regards

Bruno Sousa

Hi Bruno,

I believe that the best approach in this case is to use the following NuGet Packages to perform the bitrate calculation:

The methods available in this packages already deals with corner cases related to bit rate calculation (counter rollover, element restart, etc.)

More information in DataMiner Docs.

Hope it helps.
