The following table describes the ICMP statistics fields.

Table 13-4ICMP Statistics

Field

Description

 

 

icmpInMsgs

The total number of ICMP messages which the entity (the switch) received.

 

Note that this counter includes all those counted by icmpInErrors.

icmpInErrors

The number of ICMP messages which the entity (the switch) received but

 

determined as having ICMP-specific errors (bad ICMP checksums, bad

 

length, and so forth).

 

 

icmpInDestUnreachs

The number of ICMP Destination Unreachable messages received.

 

 

icmpInTimeExcds

The number of ICMP Time Exceeded messages received.

 

 

icmpInParmProbs

The number of ICMP Parameter Problem messages received.

 

 

icmpInSrcQuenchs

The number of ICMP Source Quench (buffer almost full, stop sending data)

 

messages received.

 

 

icmpInRedirects

The number of ICMP Redirect messages received.

 

 

icmpInEchos

The number of ICMP Echo (request) messages received.

 

 

icmpInEchoReps

The number of ICMP Echo Reply messages received.

 

 

icmpInTimestamps

The number of ICMP Timestamp (request) messages received.

 

 

icmpInTimestampReps

The number of ICMP Timestamp Reply messages received.

icmpInAddrMasks

The number of ICMP Address Mask Request messages received.

 

 

icmpInAddrMaskReps

The number of ICMP Address Mask Reply messages received.

 

 

icmpOutMsgs

The total number of ICMP messages which this entity (the switch)

 

attempted to send. Note that this counter includes all those counted by

 

icmpOutErrors.

icmpOutErrors

The number of ICMP messages which this entity (the switch) did not send

 

due to problems discovered within ICMP such as a lack of buffer. This

 

value should not include errors discovered outside the ICMP layer such as

 

the inability of IP to route the resultant datagram. In some implementations

 

there may be no types of errors that contribute to this counter's value.

 

 

icmpOutDestUnreachs

The number of ICMP Destination Unreachable messages sent.

 

 

icmpOutTimeExcds

The number of ICMP Time Exceeded messages sent.

 

 

icmpOutParmProbs

The number of ICMP Parameter Problem messages sent.

 

 

icmpOutSrcQuenchs

The number of ICMP Source Quench (buffer almost full, stop sending data)

 

messages sent.
