EAP650 desktop, SNMP ifInUcastPkts counts down not up
Have been monitoring the traffic using SNMP and noticed an interface where the ifInUcastPkts count is going down over time and not up.
When the count reaches 0, it returns to counting down from 2^32 (4294967296)
It seems to only happen when I use IoT as the name of the SSID. The other SSID I have work fine (Guest, HotSpot, Cam, Bloom).
Hoping someone can check if they get the same thing.
Counter is good on the EAP610 which has the same SSiDs.
I don't really want to have to change the SSID on 40+ smart/IoT devices.
Regards, Phil

I just did some testing and the counter is now showing realistic values and is counting up.
There has been some power resets and there was a firmware update. Maybe that rectified it?

Hi @oman181
Thanks for posting here.
Is there any issue with the EAP650-desktop's IoT network? If not, I suggest you don’t worry too much about this count.
At the same time, I will also look into the cause of this phenomenon.

Hi @Vincent-TP
The WIFI works but I like to monitor packets errors and I typically use percentage of packets in error. There are more errors on this AP than others and I am tweaking parameters and moving APs to achieve minimum errors/dropped packets.
Be nice to have a simple calculation like I do on the other EAPs.
