This happened because the MIB assumed that half the queues configured are for mcast. When create_only_config_db_buffers is set to true this is not the case
- What I did
The ciscoSwitchQosMIB MIB assumed that all the counter are configured and that half of the configured queues are for mcast.
This is no longer true, the feature "polling only configured ports buffer queue" make it possible for port to not have MC counters.
This wrong assumption caused issue sonic-net/sonic-buildimage#17448
To fix this, I instead used the BUFFER_MAX_PARAM_TABLE to find the max possible queues
- How I did it
- How to verify it
Inside the SNMP docker run snmp walk:
$ snmpwalk -v2c -c msft 10.64.247.240 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.580.1.5.5.1.4.1
Check that the results is not missing counters from any queue
