Statistics

MulticastPkts—IfHCIn

Discards—IfHCIn

Description

The total number of packets, delivered by this sublayer. These are the packets that higher-level protocols requested to be transmitted, and which were addressed to a multicast address at this sublayer, including those that were discarded or not sent.

For a MAC layer protocol, this includes both group and functional addresses.

The number of inbound packets which were chosen to be discarded even though no errors were detected to prevent their being delivered to a higher-layer protocol. One possible reason for discarding such a packet could be to free up buffer space.

Errors—IfHCIn

Octets—IfHCOut

UcastPkts—IfHCOut

For packet-oriented interfaces, the number of inbound packets that contained errors preventing them from being delivered to a higher-layer protocol.

For character-oriented or fixed-length interfaces, the number of inbound transmission units that contained errors preventing them from being deliverable to a higher-layer protocol.

The total number of octets transmitted out of the interface, including framing characters.

The total number of packets that higher-level protocols requested to be transmitted, and which were not addressed to a multicast or broadcast address at this sublayer, including those that were discarded or not sent.

BroadcastPkts—IfHCOutThe total number of packets that higher-level protocols requested to be transmitted, and which were addressed to a broadcast address at this sublayer, including those that were discarded or not sent. This object is a 64-bit version of

ifOutBroadcastPkts.

MulticastPkts—IfHCOut

Discards—IfHCOut

Errors—IfHCOut

The total number of packets that higher-level protocols requested to be transmitted, and which were addressed to a multicast address at this sublayer, including those that were discarded or not sent.

For a MAC layer protocol, this includes both group and functional addresses. This object is a 64-bit version of ifOutMulticastPkts.

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.

For packet-oriented interfaces, the number of outbound packets that could not be transmitted because of errors.

For character-oriented or fixed-length interfaces, the number of outbound transmission units that could not be transmitted because of errors.
