Ethernet Transmit Performance Counters

Alignment Errors Number of alignment errors (missynchronized data
packets).
Oversize Number of frames received that were longer than 1518
octets (excluding framing bits, but including FCS octets)
and were otherwise well formed.
Undersize Number of frames received that were less than 64 octets
long (excluding framing bits, but including FCS octets) and
were otherwise well formed.
CRC Errors Number of CRC errors (FCS or alignment errors).
Carrier Sense Errors Number of times that the carrier sense condition was lost
or never asserted when attempting to transmit a frame.

Table 10-5 Ethernet Transmit Performance Counters

Parameter Description
Frames Number of frames (unicast, broadcast and multicast)
transmitted.
Bytes Number of bytes of data transmitted onto the network.
This statistic can be used as a reasonable indication of
Ethernet utilization.
Pause Frames Number of MAC Control frames transmitted with an
opcode indicating the PAUSE operation.
