Parameter

Description

 

 

Transmit Discarded Packets

The number of outbound packets which 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.

Transmit Errors

The number of outbound packets that could not be transmitted because of

 

errors.

Etherlike Statistics

 

 

 

 

Alignment Errors

The number of alignment errors (missynchronized data packets).

 

 

Late Collisions

The number of times that a collision is detected later than 512 bit-times

 

into the transmission of a packet.

FCS Errors

A count of frames received on a particular interface that are an integral

 

number of octets in length but do not pass the FCS check. This count does

 

not include frames received with frame-too-long or frame-too-short error.

Excessive Collisions

A count of frames for which transmission on a particular interface fails due

 

to excessive collisions. This counter does not increment when the

 

interface is operating in full-duplex mode.

Single Collision Frames

The number of successfully transmitted frames for which transmission is

 

inhibited by exactly one collision.

Internal MAC Transmit Errors

A count of frames for which transmission on a particular interface fails due

 

to an internal MAC sublayer transmit error.

Multiple Collision Frames

A count of successfully transmitted frames for which transmission is

 

inhibited by more than one collision.

Carrier Sense Errors

The number of times that the carrier sense condition was lost or never

 

asserted when attempting to transmit a frame.

SQE Test Errors

A count of times that the SQE TEST ERROR message is generated by the

 

PLS sublayer for a particular interface.

Frames Too Long

A count of frames received on a particular interface that exceed the

 

maximum permitted frame size.

Deferred Transmissions

A count of frames for which the first transmission attempt on a particular

 

interface is delayed because the medium was busy.

Internal MAC Receive Errors

A count of frames for which reception on a particular interface fails due to

 

an internal MAC sublayer receive error.

RMON Statistics

 

 

 

 

Drop Events

The total number of events in which packets were dropped due to lack of

 

resources.

Jabbers

The total number of frames received that were longer than 1518 octets

 

(excluding framing bits, but including FCS octets), and had either an FCS

 

or alignment error.

Received Bytes

Total number of bytes of data received on the network. This statistic can

 

be used as a reasonable indication of Ethernet utilization.

Collisions

The best estimate of the total number of collisions on this Ethernet

 

segment.
