RFC 1284 Ethernet-Like Interface Statistics

RFC 1284 Ethernet-Like Interface Statistics

Following are descriptions of the Ethernet-like statistics fields in the lanadmin(1M) command display.

Field

Description

Index

A value that uniquely identifies an interface to an

 

802.3 medium.

Alignment Errors

A count of frames received on a particular interface

 

that are not an integral number of octets in length

 

and do not pass the FCS check.

FCS Errors

A count of frames received on a particular interface

 

that are not an integral number of octets in length

 

and do not pass the FCS check.

Single Collision Frames

A count of successfully transmitted frames on a

 

particular interface for which transmission is

 

inhibited by exactly one collision.

Multiple Collision Frames

A count of successfully transmitted frames on a

 

particular interface for which transmission is

 

inhibited by more than one collision.

Deferred Transmissions

A count of frames for which the first transmission

 

attempt on a particular interface is delayed because

 

the medium is busy. The count represented by an

 

instance of this object does not include frames

 

involved in collisions.

Late Collisions

The number of times that a collision is detected on a

 

particular interface later than 512 bit-times into the

 

transmission of a packet.

Excessive Collisions

A couple of frames for which transmission on a

 

particular interface fails due to excessive collisions or

 

packets dropped.

Internal MAC Transmit Errors

A count of frames for which transmission on a

 

particular interface fails due to an internal MAC

 

sublayer transmit error.

Carrier Sense Errors

The number of times that the carrier sense condition

 

was lost or never asserted when attempting to

 

transmit a frame on a particular interface.

Frames Too Long

A count of frames received on a particular interface

 

that exceed the maximum permitted frame size.

Internal MAC Receive Errors

A count of frames for which reception on a particular

 

interface fails due to an internal MAC sublayer

 

receive error.
