Table 49 Interface statistics for port

Statistics

Description

 

 

MulticastPkts—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.

 

 

Discards—IfHCOutThe 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.

 

 

Errors—IfHCOutFor 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.

Table 50 IP statistics for port

Statistics

Description

 

 

ipInReceives

The total number of input datagrams received from interfaces, including those received in

 

error.

 

 

ipInHeaderError

The number of input datagrams discarded because the IP address in their IP header's

 

destination field was not a valid address to be received at this entity (the switch).

 

 

ipInDiscards

The number of input IP datagrams for which no problems were encountered to prevent their

 

continued processing, but which were discarded (for example, for lack of buffer space). Note

 

that this counter does not include any datagrams discarded while awaiting re-assembly.

 

 

Link statistics
