Received Octets

The total number of octets received on the interface,

Received Unicast Packets

The number of subnetwork-unicast packets delivered to a

 

higher-layer protocol.

 

 

Received Multicast Packets

The number of packets, delivered by this sub-layer to a higher

 

(sub-)layer, which were addressed to a multicast address at

 

this sub-layer.

(sub-)layer, which were addressed to a broadcast address at

 

this sub-layer.

 

 

Received Discarded

The number of inbound packets which were chosen to be

discarded even though no errors had been detected to prevent

 

their being deliverable to a higher-layer protocol. One

 

possible reason for discarding such a packet could be to free

 

up buffer space.

 

 

Received Unknown

discarded because of an unknown or unsupported protocol.

 

 

Received Errors

The number of inbound packets that contained errors

 

preventing them from being deliverable to a higher-layer

 

protocol.

 

 

Transmit Octets

The total number of octets transmitted out of the interface,

 

including framing characters.

 

 

Transmit Unicast Packets

The total number of packets that higher-level protocols

 

requested be transmitted to a subnetwork-unicast address,
