Hola Matías... :-) and hola everyone...

There exists a magical website where to identify every OID you can check with 
SNMP, the link is: 

http://support.ipmonitor.com/mibs_byoidtree.aspx

For your particular issue, if you type "RFC1213-MIB" at the "Search for:" form, 
click the result given ("RFC1213-MIB"), and then "View: Oid-tree", you'll be 
able to locate "ifInErrors(14)" at the tree shown, and clicking it you'll find 
its Description, which reads literally:

"The number of inbound packets that contained errors preventing them from being 
deliverable to a higher-layer protocol."

That's the answer to your question!!

Now some other questions appear...

Wouldn't it be nicer to know what exactly are you monitoring before you monitor 
it, so you could properly interpret the results?

Is that parameter (number of inbound packets that contained errors and blah 
blah blah...) significant enough to determine if a port is working properly or 
not? 

Hope this helps...

Best regards, 

         Alejandro

Asunto: [Nagios-users] check_snmp - warning numbers

Hi, I am using the check_snmp nagios`s plugin. And when we check the ports 
status of a 3com Baseline 2250 Plus, we recibe many ports results:

SNMP OK - 0
SNMP WARNING - *1*
SNMP WARNING - *84*
SNMP WARNING - *2*
SNMP WARNING - *2*
SNMP WARNING - *4*

The question is, what´s the meaning of the warning numbers?


Other information:
------------------

# 'check_snmp' command definition

        }
