Forwarded Datagrams (ipForwDatagrams)

The number of input datagrams for which this entity was not their final IP destination, as a result of which an attempt was made to find a route to forward them to that final destination. In entities which do not act as IP Gateways, this counter will include only those packets which were source-routed via this entity, and the source- route option processing was successful.

Discarded for Unknown Protos (ipInUnknownProtos)

The number of locally-addressed datagrams received successfully but discarded because of an unknown or unsupported protocol.

Discarded w/No Errors (ipInDiscards)

The number of input IP datagrams for which no problems were encountered to prevent their continued pro- cessing, but which were discarded (for example, due to lack of buffer space).

Note The Discarded w/No Errors counter does not include any datagrams dis- carded while awaiting re-assembly.

Total Deliveries (ipInDelivers)

The total number of input datagrams successfully delivered to IP user-protocols (including ICMP).

Out Requests (ipOutRequests)

The total number of IP datagrams which local IP user-protocols (including ICMP) supplied to IP in requests for transmission.

Note The Out Requests counter does not include any datagrams counted in ipForwDatagrams.

Out Discards (ipOutDiscards)

The number of output IP datagrams for which no problem was encountered to prevent their transmission to their destination, but which were discarded (e.g., for lack of buffer space).

Note The Out Discards counter would include datagrams counted in ipForwDat-

agrams if any such packets met this (discretionary) discard criterion.

Discarded for No Routes (ipOutNoRoutes)

The number of IP datagrams discarded because no route could be found to transmit them to their destination.

Note The Discarded for No Routes counter includes any packets counted in ipForwDatagrams which meet this “no-route” criterion. This includes any datagrams which a host cannot route because all of its default gateways are down.

Reassembly Timeout (ipReasmTimeout)

The maximum number of seconds which received fragments are held while they are awaiting reassembly at this entity.
