Field

Description

 

 

Last Change

The value of sysUpTime at the time the interface entered its

 

current operational state. If the state has not changed since

 

the time the CSS came up, the sysUptime is when the port

 

was initialized.

 

 

Operational

The current operational state of the interface (Up, Down, or

 

Testing). The Testing state indicates no operational packets

 

can be passed.

 

 

Speed

An estimate of the interface's current bandwidth, in bits per

 

second. For interfaces that do not vary in bandwidth or for

 

those where no accurate estimation can be made, this object

 

contains the nominal bandwidth.

 

 

Queue Len

The length of the output packet queue (in packets).

 

 

Out Octets

The total number of octets transmitted out of the interface,

 

including framing characters.

 

 

Out Unicast

The total number of packets that higher-level protocols

 

requested be transmitted to a subnetwork-unicast address,

 

including those packets that were discarded or not sent.

 

 

Out Multicast

The total number of packets that higher-level protocols

 

requested be transmitted to a non-unicast (for example, a

 

subnetwork-broadcast or subnetwork-multicast) address,

 

including those packets that were discarded or not sent.

 

 

Out Errors

The number of outbound packets that could not be

 

transmitted because of errors.

 

 

Out Discards

The number of outbound packets that were chosen to be

 

discarded even though no errors had been detected to prevent

 

their being transmitted. One possible reason for discarding

 

such a packet could be to free up buffer space.

 

 

To clear interface statistics, use the clear statistics command in SuperUser mode. For example:

#clear statistics
