11-4 CHAPTER 11: ADMINISTERING BRIDGE PORTS

Table 11-1 Bridge Port Attributes (continued)

Parameter

Description

 

 

rxFrames

Number of frames that have been received by this port from its

 

segment. A frame received on the interface corresponding to this

 

port is only counted by this object if the frame is for a protocol

 

being processed by the local bridging function, including bridge

 

management frames.

rxMcastExcDiscs

Number of multicast frames discarded when rxMcastLimit is

 

exceeded

rxMcastExceeds

Amount of time rxMcastLimit has been exceeded

rxMcastFilters

Number of frames discarded because of a user-defined packet

 

filter on the receive multicast path of this port

rxMcastLimit

Configurable parameter that limits the rate of multicast frames

 

forwarded on a bridge port

rxOtherDiscs

Number of frames discarded by this port because they contained

 

either invalid (group) source addresses or source addresses

 

belonging to this bridge (indicates network loops)

rxSameSegDiscs

Number of frames discarded by this port because the destination

 

address is known on the same network segment as the source

 

address (that is, the frame does not need to be bridged)

rxSecurityDiscs

Number of frames discarded by this port because they contained

 

source addresses that were statically configured on another

 

bridge port (that is, a statically configured station, which is not

 

allowed to move, appears to have moved)
