Field

Description

drops

Indicates the number of packets dropped due to a full

 

queue

 

 

Five minute input rate

Average number of bits and packets transmitted per second

Five minute output rate

in the last five minutes

 

 

packets input

Total number of error-free packets received by the system

 

 

bytes input

Total number of bytes, including data and MAC

 

encapsulation, in the error-free packets received by the

 

system

 

 

no buffer

Number of received packets discarded because there was

 

no buffer space in the main system

 

 

Received broadcast

Total number of broadcast or multicast packets received by

 

the interface

 

 

runts

Number of packets that are discarded because they are

 

smaller than the medium’s minimum packet size

 

 

giants

Number of packets that are discarded because they exceed

 

the medium’s maximum packet size

 

 

input errors

Includes runts, giants, no buffers, CRC, frame, overrun,

 

and ignored counts

 

 

CRC

Indicates the number of times the cyclic redundancy

 

checksum generated by the originating LAN station or

 

far-end device does not match the checksum calculated

 

from the data received

 

 

frame

Number of packets received incorrectly (with a CRC error

 

and a non-integer number of octets)

 

 

overrun

Number of times the receiver hardware was unable to

 

forward received data to a hardware buffer because the

 

input rate exceeded the receiver’s ability to handle the data

 

 

ignored

Number of received packets ignored by the interface

 

because the interface hardware ran low on internal buffers

 

 

packets output

Total number of messages transmitted by the system

 

 

bytes

Total number of bytes, including data and MAC

 

encapsulation, transmitted by the system

 

 

underruns

Number of times the transmitter ran faster than the

 

receiving device could handle

 

 

output errors

Sum of all errors that prevented the final transmission of

 

packets out of the interface being examined

 

 

interface resets

Number of times an interface has been completely reset
