Term Definition
Packets Received Total Packets Received (Octets) - The total number of octets of data (including those in
bad packets) received on the network (excluding framing bits but including Frame Check
Sequence (FCS) octets). This object can be used as a reasonable estimate of Ethernet
utilization. If greater precision is desired, the etherStatsPkts and etherStatsOctets objects
should be sampled before and after a common interval. The result of this equation is the
value Utilization which is the percent utilization of the Ethernet segment on a scale of 0 to
100 percent.
Packets Received 64 Octets - The total number of packets (including bad packets)
received that were 64 octets in length (excluding framing bits but including FCS octets).
Packets Received 65–127 Octets - The total number of packets (including bad packets)
received that were between 65 and 127 octets in length inclusive (excluding framing bits
but including FCS octets).
Packets Received 128–255 Octets - The total number of packets (including bad packets)
received that were between 128 and 255 octets in length inclusive (excluding framing bits
but including FCS octets).
Packets Received 256–511 Octets - The total number of packets (including bad packets)
received that were between 256 and 511 octets in length inclusive (excluding framing bits
but including FCS octets).
Packets Received 512–1023 Octets - The total number of packets (including bad packets)
received that were between 512 and 1023 octets in length inclusive (excluding framing bits
but including FCS octets).
Packets Received 1024–1518 Octets - The total number of packets (including bad
packets) received that were between 1024 and 1518 octets in length inclusive (excluding
framing bits but including FCS octets).
Packets Received > 1518 Octets - The total number of packets received that were longer
than 1522 octets (excluding framing bits, but including FCS octets) and were otherwise well
formed.
Packets RX and TX 64 Octets - The total number of packets (including bad packets)
received and transmitted that were 64 octets in length (excluding framing bits but including
FCS octets).
