Parameter

Description

Alignment Errors

For 10 Mbps ports, this counter records alignment errors (mis-

 

synchronized data packets). For 100 Mbps ports, this counter records

 

the sum of alignment errors and code errors (frames received with

 

rxerror signal).

FCS Errors

The number of frames received that are an integral number of octets in

 

length but do not pass the FCS check.

Single Collision Frames1

The number of successfully transmitted frames for which transmission

 

is inhibited by exactly one collision.

Multiple Collision Frames1

A count of successfully transmitted frames for which transmission is

 

inhibited by more that one collision.

SQE Test Errors1

A count of times that the SQE TEST ERROR message is generated by

 

the PLS sublayer.

Deferred Transmissions1

A count of frames for which the first transmission attempt on a

 

particular interface is delayed because the medium was busy.

Late Collisions

The number of times that a collision is detected later than 512 bit-times

 

into the transmission of a packet.

Excessive Collisions1

The number of frames for which transmission failed due to excessive

 

collisions.

Internal Mac Transmit Errors1

The number of frames for which transmission failed due to an internal

 

MAC sublayer transmit error.

Carrier Sense Errors1

The number of times that the carrier sense condition was lost or never

 

asserted when attempting to transmit a frame.

Frames Too Long

The number of frames received that exceed the maximum permitted

 

frame size.

Internal Mac Receive Errors1

The number of frames for which reception failed due to an internal

 

MAC sublayer receive error.

1: The values will always be zero because these statistics are not supported by the internal chip set.
