To get a percentage, you need to divide by the number of packets. I don't
know if there is a private Cisco MIB for that or not. We usually use the
sum of the public MIBs if InUcastPkts, ifInNUcastPkts, ifOutUcastPkts and
ifOutNUcastPkts. Maybe you could just use the two ifOut* MIBs since
collisions only occur on transmitted packets.

Hi!
If I want to find out the collision % on a cisco router what packet
counter
should i use?
Since the locIfCollisions in the cisco-MIB is messured in total
number of
packets, *Octets won't be correct right? I can't seem to find a
MIB-variable
that counts the total number of packets (like etherStatsPkts from
the
RMON-MIB). I assume, that is the type of counter I need.
