Re: [nv-l] CRC Check

MIB .1.3.6.1.2.1.16.1.1.1.8 etherStatsCRCAlignErrors 
Is this what you are looking for? I too prefer the error rate. This mib _expression_ in /usr/OV/conf/mibExpr.conf, with a threshold of 1 is good:

InErrRate \
"Interface Input error rate, expressed as   \
ifInErrors*100/(ifInUcastPkts + ifInNUcastPkts)" \
        .1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.14. 100 * \
        .1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.11. \
        .1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.12. +  /

Take a look at mgmt.mib-2.interfaces.ifTable.ifEntry.ifInErrors 
which is a generic input error counter, and much better than having to 
look at different mibs for each different lan card (especially as not many 
ethernet interfaces have such mibs).
